Images of Native Americans
The Bancroft Library
(Introduction from [painshill])
The Bancroft Library has on on-line digital repository of “Images of Native Americans” relating principally to the history of California and the American West. It includes original photographs, stereographs, lantern slides, and cyanotype images of Native Americans as seen by early settlers/immigrants, as well as more modern perceptions provided from newspapers, pulp magazines and from popular culture.
A special section is devoted to James Otto Lewis' Aboriginal Portfolio, the first color plate book with images of American Indians published in the United States.
