LOT OF 4 IMAGES OF GERONIMO, HIS FAMILY AND BRAVES. 1) 7” x 4-3/4” photograph of Geronimo with three braves and a baby. The photo bears the number “1613” in two places at the lower right, and was likely duplicated from one in an archive. The photo is not annotated, but the man at the far left is likely White Horse, Geronimo’s son. The imposing man on horseback next to Geronimo is Natches (Naiche, son of Cochise), and the man at the far right is likely Eyelash (aka Fun), brother of Perico, another feared Apache warrior. 2) 6-1/2” x 4-1/4” photo on card depicting Taz-ayz-slath, wife of Geronimo and one child, and so noted on the top of the photo. According to a note on the frame, this photo was reproduced from one in a museum. 3) Framed postcard of Geronimo as an older man wearing a feathered headdress and a breechcloth. It is a high-quality photographic postcard, as the silver sheen of the emulsion is visible at low angles. 4) Half-tone print of Geronimo in a studio pose. At the bottom of the card is written in ink “Geronimo Apache war Chief – J.B. Baker, Lawton Oklahoma. CONDITION: Very good. 4-50124 SO11 (600-800)
