Scope and Contents
The Baker and Johnston photograph collection consists of 14 cabinet card images mainly of Arapahoe and Shoshone Indians, some in tribal dress, probably taken in their Evanston, Wyoming studio in the 1880s. Included are images of Arapahoe Chief Sharp Nose, Painting Horse, Oiti, Pappagoit and the Shoshone Chief Washakie. Three of the cabinet cards do not include an index of the photographs contained in the, "List of Indian Pictures," series. Because of similarities in content and printing, however, they are assumed to be taken by Baker and Johnston.
