Jack Davis Meets the North American Indians

How better to follow up yesterday's series of magnificent Jack Davis illustrations than with another batch - and one that's closely related, at that. Jack illustrated three books in this series (as one commenter mentioned yesterday, the other is on Teddy Roosevelt). I don't have that volume - but I'm very pleased to share these scans from my copy of Davis' "Meet the North American Indians" - enjoy!
