Six unidentified Shoshone children, undated
Scope and Contents
The Shoshone Indian portrait collection consists of three albumen images. Two of the images are unidentified, but one came from the photographers Charles S. Baker and Eli Johnston who ran a studio in Evanston, Wyoming. Baker & Johnson are best known for a series of images of Shoshone, Arapahoe, and Apache Indians. The photographs date from the 1870s to the 1880's.
