Lot of 3 frames edward curtis photographs
These 3 prints were purchased by me at a thrift store for $10. I opened the back of one to reveal copyright information printed on the photograph which I will describe more. Because the framing was obviously done VERY meticulously I closed it back and did not open the other two. The frame I opened: Photograph titled, “Winter, Apsaroke (Crow) taken in 1908. The description under the image reads: “Photograph by Edward S Curtis, 1998 • Courteay Denver Public Library, Western History Department • [c] 1998 AZUSA Publishing, INC • PO Box 2526, Englewood, Colorado 80150 USA” It is in an 11x14 in frame and exposed image size is 17.5x24cm Next is “Oasis in the Badlands, Sioux 1905 frames and matted to 11x14in the opening is 23.25cmx16.75cm. If also from AZUSA printing the print number would be 207 or M207. Last is “The Blanket Weaver, Navajo 1904. This is also matted to an 11x14in with an opening of 17.25x24cm. If also with same print company this will be 215 or M215. All three prints look in pristine condition. The frames have dings and scratches. In the photos. In the photos I will upload you will see the prices written on the frames with red crayon. I have since removed the writing and no damage was done to the frames.
