Lot # 98 - Woody Crumbo Lithograph from 1986 Unframed ~ Measures 18" x 22" "The Chief Speaks".  (Not Hand Signed) Very good condition

Woodrow Wilson Crumbo (Woody) (1912-1989) was an artist, Native American flute player, and dancer who lived and worked mostly in the West of the United States. 

A Pottawatomie Indian, Crumbo explores in his art the traditions and ceremonies of his own tribe as well as those of the Creek, Sioux, and Kiowa nations, and says of his work, "I have always painted with the desire of developing Indian art so that it may be judged on art standards rather on its value as a curio—I am attempting to record Indian customs and legends now, while they are alive, to make them a part of the great American culture before these, too, become lost, only to be fragmentarily pieced together by fact and supposition.
