Text on back of image: "Metlakatla Tsimshian band" Note: this image was reprinted as a postcard by the Hunts at some point. From an eBay listing the title (in all caps) on the postcard reads "A portion of Metlakahtla Indian Band, on wharf at Metlakahtla with Rev. WM. Duncan." The same postcard is printed on the back with "Pub by Hunt Grocery Co." Very likely this image was originally taken by the Hunts. 02/25/2023 ERB |
