Provenance - Collected by Underwood & Underwood; turn of the century photographers. 

Note from collector: Grandfather was Elmer Underwood, of 'Underwood & Underwood' photography fame. In the late 1800s and early 1900's, they photographed a number of native American villages and people. We believe these items came from these travels.
