Superb Tobacco Tin With A Native American Indian Sculpture

c. 1880, Large Size Tobacco Tin, with a Decorative Sculpture of Standing Native American Indian with Tomahawk and Peace Pipe, Choice Very Fine.
This handsome, 16" high tobacco tin has a lid topped by a cast-metal, painted sculpture of a Native American Indian in leather outfit, eagle feathered headdress, and painted accoutrements. The colorful cast-metal image is similar to that of the stereotypical, carved wooden Indians of the late-19th century. The rounded tin measures 6" in diameter, with painted brown and ochre bands. A choice item for display.
