TOBACCO FOLK ART.

This early 20th century piece was originally intended to advertise tobacco products. It’s a classic piece of folk art from the era, a chalk-ware bust of "MINNEHAHA" with a demure look and a series of layered trade medallion necklaces on her buckskin dress. An uncommon find that’s certain to be a conversation starter.
