The lot features a large original ledger drawings from the Northern Sioux dating to circa 1890-1940’s from the Robert Dickens Little Blue Hand collection showing the Carlisle Indian School and Sioux Warrior images. These ledger drawings are from the same ledger book collection offered and sold from our company back in 2013. The original ledger book would have been traded to the Northern Sioux and was said to be handed down from their ancestor’s at the Sioux Pine Ridge Indian Reservation and later traded to the collector many years ago back in the 1970-1980s. The set ranging in age from circa 1890 on and is mostly believed to be drawn in circa 1920-1940s. The ledger drawing shows an original late 19th Century Ledger book page which is marked “German One Bank” and “Horse Wagon / Hamack F. / Hahn Heavy / Hecker J.”. The image shows a row of Sioux young men being forced to line up by a U.S. blue coat soldier with the Carlisle or U.S. Soldier barber cutting away one boys hair and two more leaving with their hair gone, stripping the boys of any Native American culture they have remaining. The Carlisle Indian Industrial School in Carlisle, Pennsylvania was the main Indian boarding school in the United States founded in 1879 through 1918. Original condition well preserved and displays beautifully. Another smaller ledger drawing from this collection depicting the Carlisle Indian School recently sold at our auction for $1,890 (shown w/ bp) in 2024. The frame is 18.25” by 12.25” and the art is about 15.75” by 10.5”.
