Here's an interesting one: the Crow leader. Medicine Crow. Clearly, it's a fairly late photo. 1890s or more?  |

I can’t view any of the pictures you recently put up Grahame, am I the only one having this problem?

"postimg.ORG domain is locked by Registry, no prior notice. While we hope to resolve the issue, we chose postimg.CC as our new home. Please update codes embedded in your websites." Looks like the picture hosting site is down. That's a bummer. This is the second time this has happened with that hosting site. Fingers crossed it gets fixed, but I'll try with another site for now.  |

Interesting picture, I have until now not seen knife clubs among the Crows. Not discounting it offright, but could this be a studio prop?
Is there any other (visual) evidence for its use among the Crows?

I wondered if it were a souvenir from the past - either booty or trade.

Great thread and collection of photos. Just beware the late studio shots are often using props, especially anything by L.A. Huffman. This has inspired me to go through my ledger images looking for these awesome weapons.

Here's another non-Lakota knife club - this time belonging to the Cree leader, Poundmaker:  |

Nice one!
Don't know much about Cree beadwork, but the beadwork on this knife club does seem to have similarities with Plains Indian material.
