This cabinet photograph circa 1885-1890 by Bowring, Wisconsin is of a buckskin dressed American Indian in a fine, fringed buckskin jacket, pants, and wide brim western hat. He has an early tomahawk in his left hand and he is holding a small box in his right hand. When you have collected this type of image for over 50 years, you have thousands of pictures in your mind that you have seen. I am very sure I have seen a picture of this man before but I cannot remember where. I have an idea he was in the Patent Medicine business and the box may be a boxed bottle of his medicine. But, I could be wrong and perhaps will never identify him. At any rate, it is an outstanding and valuable photograph.
