Post Modern Native American Portrait Painting of a Native Woman - Clair Seglem
Located in Oklahoma City, OK
Sourced from the estate of the late Oklahoma artist Clair Seglam. An airforce man for most of his life, Seglem only began painting after his retirement. Most known for his vibrant portraits and nudes, he completed a vast portfolio of work before he died in 2020.
This piece is part of a collection that was found in one of his old sketchbooks. It was hidden away in our warehouse when we happened upon it during inventory one day. To our surprise, the notebook held a jewel box of unseen work.
This piece is a portrait of a native woman on a brown background. The woman has long braided dark hair and wears a black sleeveless top. She has a red lip and long beaded earrings. The background is a watercolor...

Antique Group of 6 Skookum Dolls, 1913s
Located in Norton, MA
A Skookum doll was a Native American-themed doll, sold as a souvenir item in the early 20th century.
They are all in different sizes. The last photo shows the dimensions (inch) of each doll, W (width) x H (height) x D (depth).
The original labels (SKOOKUM (BULLY GOOD) INDIAN )are attached to the bottoms of the leather shoes.
One method of determining the production date of the dolls is by studying the footwear. For example, the earliest dolls from around 1913 had moccasins made of leather. By 1918, the mocassins were simulated with suede applied to wood and painted designs. By 1924, they were molded of composition material, and by the 1950s, the dolls had plastic feet. Production of the dolls ended in the early 1960s.
