Do not miss out on your chance to own or gift a unique piece of history! George Washington Carver American Agricultural Scientist and Inventor published in the Friday, March 30 1923 The St. Paul Daily News (St. Paul, MN USA) newspaper. Headline: Born A Slave, He Gets High Honor - Negro Professor Becomes Fellow in British Royal Society. Amazing page 4 article about a historic American innovator's path "from slave to Fellow." He was the most prominent black scientist of the early 20th century. This would be an amazing display and conversation piece! George Washington Carver was an agricultural scientist and inventor who developed hundreds of products using peanuts (though not peanut butter, as is often claimed), sweet potatoes and soybeans. Born into slavery a year before it was outlawed, Carver left home at a young age to pursue education and would eventually earn a master’s degree in agricultural science from Iowa State University. He would go on to teach and conduct research at Tuskegee University for decades, and soon after his death his childhood home would be named a national monument — the first of its kind to honor an African American.
