- Henry Hunt (1923-1985) First Nations Bear Carving MaskLocated in Garnerville, NYAuthentic First Nations wood carved mask by master carver, Henry Hunt (1923-1985).

By the early 1950s, the carvings had started to decay, and the museum hired a carver to replicate the existing poles, and create new carvings based on original works from sites along the west coast.
