[Dietmar]

There is a second picture at the Buffalo Bill Museum from the same session at Madison Square Garden, New York.




These are my own identifications in the first picture so far:

Hi Dietmar, I agree with one exception: Whirlwind Horse.
Threr are some good photographs of Whirlwind Horse by Gertrud Kaesebier (New York.

Here is an example:

Hi Gregor,

I´ve took the Whirlwind Horse identification I´ve found at the Buffalo Bill Museum for granted. I admit I´m not sure about it.

Gertrude Käsebier labelled the photo you´ve posted as Whirling Horse. Not sure if the name has the same or a similar meaning.

However, there is another man identified by Käsebier as Whirlwind Horse.

Here is another identification of the Buffalo Bill Museum site allegedly showing Whirlwind Horse:

And finally a portrait of Whirlwind Horse (same person?) I´ve found on my harddrive:

Hi Dietmar,

back from Holidays I see your posts. Yes, you are right, it is Whirling Horse. When I see the Käsebier Fotos at the Library of Congress I suppose she was extremly correct with her captions (see William Frog, Flying Hawk, Amos Little, Sammy Lone Bear, Charging Thunder, Joe Black Fox etc.)

I think your last posted Foto Shows Athur Iron Nest, see here

Great scans, Grahame.

Hard to discern anyone... the more prominent men (like Rocky Bear, No Neck, etc.) seem to be further in the back.

However, I think the man on the white horse far left in the first row could be Short Man.
