Indian Postcards
During the vacationing 1950's and 1960's, tourists mobbed Indian
Country, and shutterbugs published postcards with "Indian pictures"
for tourists to send back home. Some stereotyped the Indian.
But many also accurately portrayed the beautiful human qualities of
the people. We've chosen the best for this series. Visit
Indian Postcards.
Kachina
Portfolio
In 1969, master artist,
lithographer, and friend of the Hopi people, Homer H. Boelter, created
a portfolio of Hopi kachinas. The portfolio was limited to 1000

was dedicated to the Hopi people. Each of the 16 plates are
presented for you to see in the
