Description
Cabinet card photo of the head of a buffalo. A pencil inscription on the reverse reads, “Killed 30 miles west of Ipswich, SD. Weigh (sic) 110 lbs.” This is a remarkable image that evidences both the beauty and brutality of bison hunting in the late 1800s, a time when overhunting nearly made bison extinct in the United States. Condition is excellent.
