Hi Ralph – don’t forget
the Smithsonian’s Museum of American History…about 14 years ago, SITES did a traveling
exhibition titled “The Real McCoy:
African American Inventors” and Madame C.J. Walker was prominently
featured in one of the sections.
The Greensboro Historical Museum hosted the exhibit while I was there
and as I recall, there were several products of Madame Walker.
Hope all is well in Sunny
Louisiana! Best, VivianLea
