The New York Times noted: In 1987, Memphis mounted "Ramses the Great" -- art and artifacts from the era of Ramses II, the powerful Egyptian ruler in the 13th century B.C. -- in cooperation with the Egyptian Antiquities Organization and the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. The "Ramses" show, which originated in Montreal and had a nine-city North American tour, ran for four and a half months in Memphis. As part of the deal, Memphis paid for the restoration of a 47-ton statue of Ramses that was shipped to the city for display in the show. City officials say "Ramses the Great" drew 675,000 visitors, half from outside the Memphis area, and brought in $83 million worth of business". [NY Times, April 13, 1991, Section 1, Page 16].
