Vintage 1926 profile photograph of Native American "Two Guns White Calf" who struck one of the most famous photographs of all time when his image was selected for the buffalo nickel! He died in 1934 and images of him are rare with this being one of only a handful we have ever heard of. Issued by Fotograms and stamped on the back with a full paper caption as well. One of his greatest images ever taken and this is the first example we have ever seen offered. Photo has some creasing at the top corner but it looks better than the technical grade.
