DAKOTA WAR OF 1862 PHOTOGRAPHYDAKOTA WAR OF 1862 PHOTOGRAPHY GROUPA historically significant group of carte-de-visite depicting figures from the Outbreak of 1862 and one stereo viewer card. The Indian Massacre of 1862 stemmed from the frontier extending into Minnesota. After broken treaties and a failure to provide the food promised to the indigenous peoples the Sioux attacked, resulting in the death of almost 500 settlers, volunteers, and soldiers. The Civil War slowed the response but Colonel Henry Hastings Sibley ultimately defeated Little Crow at the Battle of Wood Lake. In a period of less than six weeks trials were held for the combatants, some lasting only five minutes, and resulting in 303 of 392 prisoners being given a death sentence. After reviewing the convictions Abraham Lincoln decided that only 39 should be hanged with one more person being given a last minute reprieve. It was later found that two of those hanged were victims of mistaken identity and history has questioned President Lincoln putting the Native Americans to death when not a single Confederate soldier was punished in kind for their role in the deaths of so many Union soldiers. The mass hanging of 38 Dakota Sioux remains the largest mass hanging in American History. These cards document the Chippewa Chief Neh-Bah-Quah-Om (Big Dog), Chief Qui-Wi-Sain-Shish (Bad Boy), and Chief Wah Bo Jeeg (White Fisher) and The Sioux Chief Ta-Tanka-Nazin (Standing Buffalo), Chief Little Crow, and Te-Na-Se-Pa (A Sioux Dandy). The three Sioux warriors were executed for their part in the uprising. Each of these was produced by J. F. Whitney, Whitney's Gallery of St. Paul Minnesota and marked as such. The stereoview card is a photo card showing a street scene by Upton's Views and shows the studio in the foreground. Carte-de-visite approx. 2-3/8" L x 4" H, stereopticon card approx. 7" L x 3-3/8" H. See images for details. This item can be shipped in-house.
CA. 1896 HORACE S. POLEY LAKOTACA. 1896 HORACE S. POLEY LAKOTA OR UTE PHOTOGRAPHThis is a fantastic photograph circa 1896 by Horace S. Poley showing a large grouping of Southern Plains or Plains Native American Indians including an Indian Police member. Horace Swartley Poley was born in Norristown, Pennsylvania in 1864 and moved to Colorado in the 1880’s, being a resident of Colorado Springs for sixty-two years. Poley started a commercial photography studio in 1892 and remained active in photography until 1935. H.S. Poley was asked to photograph archaeological expeditions in New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, and southwest Colorado. In addition, Poley delivered lectures that featured his images in magic lantern shows, and was a member of the Colorado Springs Pioneer Society, the Knights of Pythias, and the National Archaeology Society. This image shows a total of nineteen Indians, possibly from the Ute tribe or Lakota Sioux tribe in a range of regalia including featured and beaded headdress, several hair-pipe bone breast plates, hair-pipe bone choke collars, beaded belts, what appears to be an Otter Mirror Sash which are documented as being from the Lakota Ihoka Badger Society amongst cowboy hats. The images show each male bearing a badge or metal as well as an Indian bearing an Indian Police badge. Truly a fantastic photograph with immense detail. The image is marked in the negative as shown in the bottom left corner which can be made out, “1896 H. S. Poley”. Horace S. Poley photographs are highly collectible with a grouping of smaller examples selling for $5,676.25 (shown w/ bp) at Heritage Auctions in 2011. Provenance: From the Jim Aplan Piedmont, South Dakota collection. Measures8 7/8” by 7.25”. The card shows some loss to the outside edge, particularly the bottom as well as some cracking, some markings in the field, speck dots or pin dots on each person’s eyes. The back is handwriting in graphite pencil but what it says can not be deciphered. In 1937, the Denver Public Library acquired the Horace Swartley Poley collection. According to Randel Metz, "Horace Swartley Poley created a major collection of photographic images of Native Americans in the southwestern United States. Born in Norristown, Pennsylvania in 1864, Poley moved to Colorado in the 1880s and was a resident of Colorado Springs for 62 years. Poley started a commercial photo studio in 1892 and remained an active photographer until 1935. In addition to his photographic work, Poley served as head of the U.S. Postal registry department in Colorado Springs. During summer vacations, Poley served as photographer with archaeological expeditions in Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, and southwest Colorado. He recorded landscapes, cityscapes, and events in the Pikes Peak region of Colorado. Poley was noted for his travelogue lectures employing his images in 'magic lantern' shows." (Randel Metz's article about acclaimed Western photographer Horace Poley - Denver Public Library blog, June 9, 2015) The Iho’ka or Badger Society was one of the Aki’cita eligible societies. Aki’cita (or Akicita) has been often translated as “soldier” or “warrior” but its more accurate implied meaning is more appropriately as “guard” or “police”. These Aki’cita Societies would act as “guards” and watch over the tribe when the tribe moved from one place to another and keep watch for enemy activity when a camp was chosen. Aki’cita also acted as “civil police” to preserve order in the camp and had the right to punish offenders of tribal codes or conduct. Warriors chosen to serve as Aki’cita also had the responsibility to maintain strict control during a Buffalo hunt. The Iho’ka (Ihoka) Badger Society were considered amongst the most extreme warriors of the Aki’cita. They were said to have been started by a man who dreamed of a badger. They often took great risks against seemingly insurmountable odds, emulating the great tenacity found in the behavior of a badger, who would not think twice about going nose to nose with a bear ten times its own size and winning the fight. Among the notable insignia of this society are the society’s crooked lances wrapped in wolf skin, quirts with one serrated edge and otter fur wrist loops along with otter skin yokes which were later adorned with trade mirrors to blind their enemies.

C. DEC. 25, 1890 GHOST DANCE LAKOTAC. DEC. 25, 1890 GHOST DANCE LAKOTA PHOTOGRAPHThis is an original, authentic Lakota Sioux Ghost Dance photograph at Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota from photographer George E. Trager Northwestern Photographic Co. taken December 25, 1890. This is from the Jim Aplan Piedmont, South Dakota collection. The image was taken 10 days after the arrest and murder of Chief Sitting Bull (just North at Standing Rock Indian Reservation in South Dakota) pushing tensions near the breaking point, and just 4 days before the U.S. Cavalry killed hundreds of Lakota in the Wounded Knee Massacre, only around 20 miles from this spot (it is easily presumed that some of the members in the photograph were eventually killed at Wounded Knee). There is another promenade or boudoir card photographs that was listed by Swann Auction Gallery in September 2021 which shows two photographs, one being this exact image and the other taken at the exact same time, several of the exact dancers can be seen in both photographs, with the other being marked in the negative, “Rose Bud and Sioux Indian War Dance at Pine Ridge Agcy, Dec 25th, 1890, S. Dak.,”. The back of the card is handwritten in graphite pencil at the top in cursive, “The Ghost Dance”. The card also is printed on the back, “VIEWS Wounded Knee Battle, Indian Camps, War Camps, Indian Chiefs. Everything of interest in the late Pine Ridge War are held by us for sale. Agents wishing to make $10 to $15 per day wanted. Northwestern Photographic Co., Chadron, Neb.” The back also shows a quack Epilepsy Cure stating, “The water from the famous MINNE PAZUTA SPRINGS have cured 20 cases of the worst forms of Epilepsy within the last year. For information and testimonials address Trager & Ford Chadron, NEB.” The photograph truly shows one of the most contentions and important moments in time during the Indian Wars and Native American history. Tatanka Iyotake, better known as Sitting Bull led the Lakota / Hunkpapa Sioux during years of resistance against the brutal anti-Native American policies declared by the United States government. Sitting Bull was killed by the police on the Standing Rock Indian Reservation just north of where this photograph was taken during an attempt to arrest him. The authorities greatly feared that Sitting Bull, being the highest person of influence, would join the Ghost Dance movement, which preached resistance to assimilation. This photograph is a reaction to the killing of their beloved leader, taken only 10 days after his death, and eventually led to the great massacre of nearly 300 Lakota Sioux by the U.S. Cavalry. One of the best photographs we have offered and on the public market. Provenance: From the Jim Aplan collection Piedmont, South Dakota. Measures 8.5” by 5”.
