Blackfoot chief (1872–1934) best known for the durable though still-controversial claim that he served as one of models for sculptor James Earle Fraser in creating the composite Native American portrait on the “Buffalo” nickel. Scarce and arresting 3.5 x 5.5 matte-finish postcard photo, signed in ink with the chief’s three-character pictogram of two rifles and a horned calf. Mild silvering to dark portions, otherwise fine, clean, attractively preserved condition. R&R COA.
