The lot features a collection of nine cabinet cards with later photos of some of the most important and historic Native American’s of the West during the 19th-century. The images include Sapiah (also known as Charles Buck and Buckskin Charley, Southern Ute Chief 1840-1936), Big Mouth Hawk an Arapaho warrior photo taken by Alexander Gardener circa 1872, Short Bull a Sicangu Lakota (1845-1915), Edward S. Curtis The Potter 1906 image, Sitting-in-the-Saddle (otherwise known as Tau-ankia / Tau-ankia-Tibone, the son of Lone Wolf) photo taken by William Stinson Soule circa 1867, image of a Native Woman by William Dinwiddie (1867-1934), Brule Lakota Chief Two Strikes (1831-1915) taken when he and others were delegates to Washington DC in 1872, Comanche Chief Quanah Park’s Daughter Wanda Parker taken in Oklahoma circa 1891, and lastly Oglala Lakota Chief Red Cloud (1822-1909) taken by Frank A. Rinehart in 1898. The cabinet card stock is all original with various different photographer and gallery markings, but the images appear to be contemporary. The cabinet card makers are as such: Schroder St. Joseph, Misouri (Red Cloud image); Pokorney 771 W. Madison St. Chicago (Big Mouth Hawk image); Lovingfoss L.C.W. Chatsworth, Illinois (Short Bull image), also Lovingfoss for the E.S. Curtis woman, Sitting in the Saddle, and Chief Two Strikes images; P. Fleischer Photographer Streator, Illinois; and George Lansil 4 Main St., Bangor, Maine. While these images and cabinet cards display wonderfully the images are all contemporary. Largest measures about 6.5-inches by 4 3/8-inches.
