"Lewis H. Larsen was,  the kind of person that a revisionist historian would call a “character.” 
His memory is romanticized as a cowboy artist, poet and public servant.  True, but Lewis Larsen was also
a hard minded, driven business man who had many close calls with the authorities in at least three states.

Larsen took the nickname Dude as a pseudo – nom d’art.  It has been conjectured that Larsen was a
competent artist who painted for both fun and profit.  There is a fine distinction but Larsen had no bent for
artistic documentation of cowboy life for historical purposes; he worked at his art because he knew his
oil paintings would sell in the millions if they were made into postcards.  Collectors should notice that
99% of Larsen’s postcards are self-published.      ( - Ray Hahn: Postcard History - October 24, 2019)

NOTE:  "Lewis H. Larsen was Larsen acted as an agent for other artists, one of whom was
“Hoke” Denetsosie.  Larsen’s art agency cards carry his name and copyright dates from 1949 to 1953."
