Here's Daniel Mitchell's original stereoview, dated 1877:

Would it be dyed red? Red would show up dark on a photo like this, wouldn't it?

Here's the familiar version. Said to show some of the Cheyenne chiefs present at the LBH battle, from left to right: Sits in the Night; Red Cherries; Brave Wolf; Two Moons; American Horse; Buffalo Hump; Spotted Wolf; Old Wolf. AS Dietmar has said, according to Frank/Barthelmess in "Photographer on an Army Mule," the photo was made at a council with General Nelson A. Miles at Lame Deer in 1889. However, I think the date is 1898. See lib.dr.iastate.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1151&context=language_pubsI've just come across two more photos - the outtakes, if you like:

I've even seen him on auction sites as Captain Jack of the Modoc!

Best I can find out, Gilbert didn't arrive in Dakota Territory from Iowa until 1881 and didn't open his studio (with Alice Miller) until November of that year.

Unidentified Arapaho, said to be from 1865... Bliss? Soule? Phillips? Man? Scouts (Crow?) Kiowas

I wonder if this is one of his sons - said to be Crow Dog and family (date was 1890-2, I think, though that could be wrong)?

Wowinape, 1864 And again... 1863 Thomas Wakeman - Wowinape in later life This is supposed to be Wakeman sitting at the centre of this group in 1887. I don't see it, to be honest. Little Crow's wife and children - both boys and clearly neither is Wowinape Little Crow's daughters - one of which is Mary Little Crow Renville, Fort Snelling, 1862? 1864? Little Crow - father of the subject of this thread? And again Little Crow by Frank Blackwell Mayer, 1851 Little Crow (left) and White Cap, refugees of the Minnesota massacre. This isn't THE Little Crow. I think it's 1881 at Fort Qu'Appelle, thouigh it could be a Boundary Commission sketch made in 1874. If it is 1881, White Cap's clothing is remarkably native bearing in mind what he looks like four years later. So... it would appear there was another Dakota Little Crow who made it to Canada and stayed there.

Execution of a photographer too, I suspect...
The figures at the left look like Indian kids - schoolkids wearing ill-fitting clothing, maybe.

Not sure whether or not this is any clearer!

Sharp Nose variant on the one posted up thread Two young Arapaho men Oiti, second chief of the Shoshone Sharp Nose, the Victorian dandy. Not sure about this one; the backdrop doesn't look familiar
