I took my mother where she and I met Ms. Whiteman and had a very informative and enjoyable talk. The topic of collecting came up and Ms.Whiteman indicated the Black lady in New York who had what was agreed to at that time the largest collection and if memory serves me correctly Ms. Whiteman had the second largest while my mothers collection was the third largest. A few years later my mother one of ghe dolls that she made to Ms. Whiteman's museum along with donations to the museum in Wilberforce,one in Detriot and Cleveland. I have one here also. This doll is called a ''Golly Wog'' I do want to visit your museum soon.
