Contact seller4-star sellerSecond Edition. Oblong small 4to. 12 pp pamphlet by Dr. Claude E. Schaeffer titled "The Story of the Blackfoot Indians. A Brief Historical Sketch of the Blackfoot Indian Nation" along with biographical sketches of Reiss and Dr. Schaeffer; 24 color reproductions of noted American artist Winold Reiss' glorious paintings of the Bla…ckfeet Indians, done in brilliant primary colors. A number of the reproductions were included in the first edition while a number are new additions to this collection. Housed in publisher's illustrated envelope. A fine set, as new. F. Winold Reiss (1886 - 1953) was a German-born American artist and graphic designer. In 1920 he travelled to the American West for the first time, working for a lengthy period on the Blackfeet Reservation. Over the years Reiss painted more than 250 works depicting Native Americans. These paintings by Reiss became known more widely beginning in the 1920 and to the 1950s, when the Great Northern Railway commissioned Reiss to do paintings of the Blackfeet which were then distributed widely as lithographed reproductions on Great Northern calendars. The author, Dr. Claude Everett Schaeffer (1901 - 1969) was an American ethnologist in the Northern Plains and Plateau area, best known for his research of the Blackfeet and Kutenai tribes.
