Store Open at the Ginger House Museum

The Ginger House Museum (birthplace of Ginger Rogers) just opened an online store and is offering several items from the Roberta Olden Ginger Collection.
Milk bottle

Among the items available are posters from the 2018 Ginger Rogers Festival, milk bottles from the Rogers Rogue River Ranch, paperback and hardback copies of the book "Ginger My Story" by Ginger Rogers, and two prints of paintings done in oil and watercolor by Ginger Rogers in 1940 and 1968.  Ginger was truly a gifted artist in many aspects.

Ginger Rogers was born on July 16, 1911 in Independence, Missouri. She was a multi-talented singer, dancer, and actress who starred on Vaudeville and Broadway, in 73 motion pictures, multiple radio and TV shows, and her own acts. She traveled all over the U.S. England, and elsewhere.
