TOHOLO MICCO,
No. 7   A CREEK CHIEF

This image from Vol. I of the 1872 Octavo edition will also include the biography pages from the text.  TOHOLO MICCO, was principal chief of the Eufaulo town which lies between Tallasee and Oakfiskee, in the Creek nation, the Tallapoosa river running through it. 

This hand painted color plate is in especially nice condition with some age related toning at the edges but paper is mostly bright.  Colors in his native costume are very clean and nice. 

Hand colored lithograph color plates were by Henry Inman based on paintings by Charles Bird King, James Otto Lewis, and Peter Rindisbacher.  Most of the original paintings were destroyed in a fire and the Henry Inman lithographs preserve the images.
