The bison was not only the chief source of food of the Plains Indians, but its skin was made into clothing, shields, packs,bags, snowshoes, and tent and boat covers: the horns were fashioned into spoons and drinking vessels: the sinew supplied thread for sewing, bow strings, and fibre for ropes; the hair was woven into reatas, belts, personal ornaments, and the covers of sacred bundles; and the dried droppings, \"buffalo-chips,\" were used as fuel.\"

Curtis photogravure plate.Rare and long out of print, the now famous 1972 printing of these photo lithograph plates marked the first time since the early 20th century that these iconic Native American images have been faithfully reprinted from the original large Curtis photogravure plates, as well as matched for tonality and color. The vintage 1972 plates were produced in a folio size edition (the piece represented in this listing is the folio size) and in a smaller size edition, both of which are carried in our store. In the year of their release, the famous photography critic and author A.D. Coleman praised the high quality of these 1972 Edward Curtis fine art plates as being the truest printing of the photographer\'s work he had ever seen, outside of the actual original turn of the century photogravure plates.
