Seller's Description:
Illustrated by MacDonald, Alexis; McDougal, Milton. 0774802642. Signed, without inscription, by Doreen Jensen upon first leaf. "The button blanket is eye-catching, prestigious and treasured-one of the most spectacular embellishments fo the Indian culture of the Northwest Coast and a unique form of graphic and narrative art. This is not only the first publication to focus on button blankets but also the first oral history about them and their place in the culture of the Northwest Coast. Those interviewed include speakers from six of the seven major Northwest Coast Indian groups. The book is a search for truth about the historical and contemporary role and traditions of the blanket, as those relate to the past and present Indian way of life on the Pacific Northwest Coast."-back cover. [10], 86 pages. Bibliography. Generously illustrated with colour and black and white photos. Clean, bright, tight and unmarked with very light wear. An excellent signed copy.; Museum Note, No 17; Photography; 86 pages; Signed by Author.
