You gotta remember that blankets and shawls were like coats and jackets back then.

Hi @Historian,
Thank you for sharing these photos. If you havent gone out & looked already, I thought you might be interested in searching: The Yale Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library which I found has 135 items (lots of old photos along with newer ones) regarding Comanches at: Search Home and The Peabody Museum at Harvard which I found has 86 objects relating to Comanches at: http://pmem.unix.fas.harvard.edu:8080/peabody/ btw for anyone who is interested, Ive started a NAGPRA social group here on pw.com where Im listing info related to repatriation. |
