About This Item
Seattle: Univ. of Wash, 1984. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/like new. 4to cloth with silver Indian pictorial line details/drawings. 210pp. Illustrated profusely with vintage b/w photos. Index. A long, several line inscription originally written by Farr to May Dull Vallance on a card or other source has been re-written in Vallance's hand on the title page. She even signed it in behalf of Farr. Vallance provided several photos for the book. Vallance also wrote a brief presentation to another person, Caroline Davis. Vallence also wrote some rather extensive & interesting annotations below several photos. This book & the exhibit from which it was drawn was the result of the author's belief that late 19th Century & 20th Century Blackfeet culture, & memory of cultural history, was being lost. The extensive collection of photos, snapshots, etc., and the extensive text provided by Farr go a long ways in restoring that memory. A tremendous book & nice association copy. Fine in dj.
