O‘Neal, the longtime companion of fellow actor Farrah Fawcett, presented Fawcett’s red swimsuit from her famous poster in 1976 along with other items to the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History on Wednesday. She died of cancer in 2009. What were the items you presented to the Smithsonian?
[There was a] puzzle of the poster, a beauty kit where little girls could learn to comb their hair like Farrah, [several] TV Guide covers from the first couple of shows, and a series of scripts. On the cover of one she drew a couple of the angels. She was a good artist. And there was the bathing suit that was on the poster that sold over 12 million copies. It’s her birthday today, so it was special.
