Featured in this lot is this Winold Reiss lithograph poster called "The Sign Talkers", circa 1939. The poster features a two-part construction with a cream backing and a decorative lithograph of two Native American men sign talking. The lithograph is from Winold Reiss and is signed in the bottom left-hand corner. Winold Reiss was born in Germany in 1886. Following in the footsteps of his father, Winold became an artist, studying art in Munich. In 1913, Winold came to the United States with a romantic idealism of Native Americans and the vast Western Frontier. 1919 found Winold Reiss in Montana, where he befriended Natives in the Blackfoot tribe. He made pastel portrait drawings of many of the Blackfeet he had met. Reiss was able to capture individual traits, as well as a high degree of human dignity; his portraits were sensitive and sympathetic depictions. This sign is associated with Glacier National Park. The condition of this lithograph is fair, with browning to the exposed and wrinkling to the corners of poster. The measurements of this poster are 24" x 15 1/2".
