North American Indian Artifacts par Lar Hothem
Collectors identification and value guide to Native American artifacts (1980)
I have numerous books on this subject and a couple of issues of this one. My family has donated my grandfathers large collection of artifacts from the early 1900s. Some of the artifacts, which many in it, this and all books and collections pale to, are an important piece of history of the great peoples that produced them along with any other artifact. None of which should be considered a greater or lesser piece of the whole .
That this book garners a rating of just two is inappropriate, especially without comment,. Just simply for the attempt to collect the information and pictures which may add to the already large volume of often incorrect, invalid and distorted information"experts" seem to think they have validated.

There is no index but there is a one page introduction and a table of contents.
The remainder of this book is mostly good quality images of many types of artifacts, including blanks and preforms, not just the finished articles. There are a few pages of advertising in the back.
There is a focus on prices and nothing on Indian culture of lifetyles or distribution. Still the photos are a good reference.

Super reference book on school collectibles. Black and White pictures. Everything from bells to slates to book carriers.
