For your consideration are three Native American photos and one Native American cabinet card photo circa 1900-1911. No publisher or makers mark present. The cabinet card photo is set on a cream card stock and shows two Native American girls, possibly sisters, sitting and posing for a photo. The older one sits on the right, while the younger one sits on the left. They are wearing long dresses and the older one has her hair done in two large braids. The first photo is marked on the back in pencil reading, "Crow Children / E / 1911" and shows four Crow tribe children sitting on horse back. There are two children to a horse and they are looking towards the camera. They have their hair in braids and appear to be wearing trade blankets around their waists. The second photo is marked on the back in pencil reading, "E / Thomas Wasee (Wagee) / 1911". It shows a Native American man and woman standing out in a field while a horse grazes in the background. The man is wearing a large headdress and the woman has her hair in two braids. Their clothes are adorned with beautiful beadwork. The final photo in this lot is marked on the back in pencil reading, "Blackfeet Man and Women / 1911". The photo shows three Blackfeet tribe members, one man and two women, riding on horse back while two dogs trail behind the women and their horses. In the background, many teepees can be seen throughout the field. Both women are wearing bonnets over their heads and the man is wearing a hat and a suit.
