American Historical Ephemera & Photography Online

8 x 6 in. proof print of a grass-thatched hut with pointed roof, set amongst a copse of trees, affixed to 10 x 8 in. original storage envelope with inked notations (toning, soiling, edge and corner wear to print and envelope, unexamined outside frame). The scene is identified in the lower margin as "Old Grass-House - Wichita," and blue inked notations in left margin include, "4195 / Sept. 17 1927" and "North American Indian Vol. XIX." The lower margin of the print is inscribed in red ink in Edward Curtis' hand, "From Copyright Photograph by E.S. Curtis." Below this, Curtis has made corrections to the title in red ink, indicating that "Grass House" should be a "compound word, Hyphen." He has also crossed out the capital "H" in "House," and has written below this, "Lower case make h." Finally, Curtis notes that he wants a "dash" between "House" and "Wichita."
