Smoke Signals: Lakota Indian Chief Sitting Bull Magnet
In the swirling smoke of a bygone era, a weathered card tells a tale. On its surface, a stoic visage; Sitting Bull, the legendary Lakota chief, his gaze piercing through time. But this is no ordinary portrait. It's a cigarette card, a sliver of history tucked between puffs of tobacco. --- Cigarette cards were the pop culture of their day. Tucked into cigarette packs, they offered a glimpse of the world; famous explorers, exotic animals, even historical figures like Sitting Bull. These miniature marvels, often black and white or with limited colours, were a way for companies to entice smokers and spark conversations. --- But our story's card is different. It's a vibrant splash of colour, depicting Sitting Bull not just in a head-and-shoulders portrait, but in full stature, a testament to his strength and presence. Perhaps it's a rare variant, a test print, or something more; a mystery waiting to be unraveled. --- As we delve deeper, the card becomes a gateway to Sitting Bull's legacy. A fierce warrior who fought for his people's land and way of life, his image on the card ignites memories of the Battle of Little Bighorn, a pivotal moment in American history. But Sitting Bull was also a wise leader, a spiritual man who believed in harmony with nature. The card becomes a touchstone, a reminder of a complex figure and a time of great change. --- This story isn't just about a cigarette card. It's about the unexpected places history hides. It's about the power of a small object to spark curiosity, ignite the imagination, and transport us back to a world both familiar and strange. It's a reminder that even in the smoke and ash, a spark of truth and resilience can endure. --- Cigarette card of Sitting Bull by for W.S. Kimball & Co. tobacco manufacturer made about 1890.

I ordered thinking this was a New Zealand site (had a .co.nz address) not realising it was shipping from the UK. Have had to use other things for xmas presents as it's now Jan 2nd and they've still not arrived. I'll tell you if it ever gets here!
