WASHINGTON
Fawcett's longtime companion Ryan O'Neal donated the swimsuit
and other items to the Smithsonian's National Museum of American
History on Wednesday. A 1976 poster of Fawcett in the dampened
one-piece swimsuit sold millions of copies.
Also donated to the Smithsonian were Fawcett's copies of scripts
for the first season of "Charlie's Angels" and a 1977 Farrah
Fawcett doll.
The items will be part of the museum's popular culture history
collection.
Fawcett died in 2009 at the age of 62 after battling cancer.
