I collect Native American postcards and have approximately 4000 featuring Indigenous peoples & cultures of the Americas, north to south. A portion of my research examines representation of Native culture in the media and I am interested in the educational use of postcards as Cultural & Public History/Anthropology. I have published on the history of Southern Plains Native cards; for a list of postcard reference books, see the bottom of this page.

Saxman Totem Park
A multi-view tourist card featuring wood art from Ketchikan, Alaska. The park contains many old poles moved from their original, but now unoccupied, village sites in the area as well as a few carved in the 1930s.
