Item Overview

Description

Original Northwest Coast Native American Signed Mask called , MOON Tlingit Tribe Made in 2003, by George David, signed. This was originally purchased from the artist for $3200.00. Beautifully hand carved and painted in excellent condition. Mask measures 8 x 8 1/2 inches wide. Tlingit, northern most of the Northwest Coast Indians of North America, living on the islands and coastal lands of southern Alaska from Yakutat Bay to Cape Fox. Thirty-three Native American tribes had members who served as World War II code talkers, amounting between 400-500 men. But for decades, it was classified information and kept secret, even from the code talkers’ families. For the Tlingits, it wasn’t until 2013 that it became public knowledge. They spoke the Tlingit language, which is related to Athabaskan. According to their traditions, some of their ancestors came from the south and others migrated to the coast from the Canadian interior.
