1. Title: "The Epic Saga of the Horse and the Dog: A Multi-part Story in the Native American Pictograph Tradition" This set of shaped cards presents a captivating multi-part story from the rich and vibrant Native American Pictograph Tradition. Dating back to circa 1907, these cards were meticulously crafted to resemble the hides on which the original stories were painted, preserving the essence of the indigenous peoples' artistic and storytelling heritage. The tale that unfolds across these cards features a set cast of characters, each identified with an animal or totem. In this installment (card 2/4), we encounter two prominent figures: the Horse and the Dog. The Horse, a symbol of strength, freedom, and power, and the Dog, a loyal companion and protector, are central to this intriguing narrative. The Native American Pictograph Tradition is a testament to the indigenous peoples' deep connection to the land and their belief in the spiritual significance of animals. These pictographs, or painted images, were used to tell stories, record history, and convey messages across generations. By recreating these works on shaped cards, we are transported back in time, allowing us to experience the richness and depth of this ancient storytelling tradition. The red hues that dominate the cards add an authentic and earthy feel, further enhancing the connection to the land and the people who created these works. This set of cards offers a unique glimpse into the lives and stories of the indigenous peoples, providing a valuable window into their history and culture. As we explore the remaining cards in this series, we will encounter more intriguing characters and their adventures, woven together in a captivating and intricate tapestry of Native American storytelling.
