Proudly presented today is this rare First Printing of "Sioux Indian Drawings", published by Milwaukee Public Museum in 1961. Long out of print, this portfolio contains 34 plates taken from the Red Hawk Ledger Book. This incredible collection was in the possession of a Sioux warrior who survived the Wounded Knee Massacre in 1890. In 1900, the collection was donated to the Milwaukee Public Museum, and in 1961, 36 plates were reproduced in a limited first edition printing. This portfolio is from that printing. Two of the plates are missing, Plate 2 and Plate 13, and the historical pamphlet that accompanies the prints is a reproduction of the original. The plates are in truly excellent condition without any issues whatsoever, and measure 12 inches by 15 and a quarter inches. The Red Hawk Ledger Book is arguably the best collection of Plains Indian Ledger Art in existence, and this portfolio is an historically important representation of that record. 

There are 10 portfolios available, and these were purchased many years ago directly from the Milwaukee Public Museum, and were the very last copies in their possession. They have been carefully stored since that time, and never displayed. This is a wonderful opportunity to acquire such a desirable collection. Buy with confidence, fr as you all know, if the buyer is unsatisfied for ANY reason, i will immediately return the full purchase price, including shipping. This is a great historical printing, so don't miss out! Many Thanks for your kind consideration, and as always, Best Regards, Rich
