You might try contacting the Iron Range Research Center at Ironworld in
Northern Minnesota.

In addition to their excellent regional history collections and mining
history material from the Minnesota iron ranges, I seem to recall that
Ironworld is home to one (of many?) Polka Halls of Fame and an annual
International Polkafest.
Ed Nelson is the archivist there and his e-mail address is ed@ironworld.com
It seems to me that there is also a Polka Hall of Fame in Chicago.
Probably recalling it from a Midwest Archives Conference tour offering many
years back. Good to know we have several Polka Halls of Fame, eh?
