| General Notes | An outside photograph of two men: one is a Euro-American and the other a Native American. Both men are standing in front of a multi-layered tule mat tipi. The photographer has identified the Native American man as Poker Jim. He is wearing a cowboy hat and is wrapped in a Pendleton blanket that reaches his ankles. He is holding the reins of a barebacked horse. The Euro-American is wearing a suit and overcoat and has both hands in his coat pockets. He also is wearing a derby hat. There are six visible external poles leaning against the tipi, presumably to hold down the woven mats. To the men's right, leaning against the tipi, is a homemade ladder that appears to be made of similar poles. The background shows a hint of hillside, along with cottonwood trees and a lone pine tree. At the base of the pine tree is a stack of firewood.
