Two very rare printed sheets of Indian names, broken into syllables for pronunciation and its derivation. One list is split into two sections and affixed to a 9 x 12 scrapbook sheet, another 5 x 7.5 sheet is headed at the top, “Yankton Agency 1879, Oct—12.,” and is affixed to a slightly larger sheet. Some names include: Walking Bull, Large Old Man, Bloody Tomahawk, One Who Changes His Place, Andrew Johnson, Iron Whip, Wears A Wheel, and Smoke Maker. In good condition, with scattered toning and staining from adhesive on reverse. Very few of these were printed, even fewer survived. RR Auction COA.
