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.
