Hello,
My name is M. Wilson, and I’m a producer working on a documentary project related to George E. Johnson and Johnson Products (Ultra Sheen / Afro Sheen).
I came across several images on your site related to Johnson Products, including product photos and advertisements. I wanted to inquire about the rights status of these images.
Could you let me know:
1. Who owns or controls the copyright to these images?
2. Whether they are available for licensing for editorial or documentary use?
3. If so, who I should contact to discuss usage rights and licensing terms?
If your organization does not control the rights, any guidance on the original source or rights holder would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time and assistance.
Best regards,
M Wilson

Gentlemen,
I am looking for the contact details of Mr. George Ellis Johnson Sr. founder of “Johnson Products Co. Inc.” I would be indebted to you if you can help me find his email or address or phone number.
By thanking you in advance for your diligence,
Kind regards

I have a old wooden paddle or stur stick made by your company for Mars Inc/Milky Way Candy. Any idea.
Please as a patient in a nursing home and as a former one of hospitals, I have been to only one out of approximately 5 that had hair care for Black patients! They recieve about 300.00 a day from medicaid and medicare in most cases and take many peoples social security on top of that! The patients then have 30-50.00 monthly please could your sales reps start calling nursing facilities and hospitals across America and get your products in them? We need your help asap!

Hi Lisa, we wish we could help, but this is a museum about Chicago manufacturing history. We have no connection to the Johnson Products Company and we’re not sure Johnson is still making hair care products as of 2023. Very sorry that similar products are not being made available for you. –Made In Chicago Museum
