CDV - CHIPPEWA INDIANS - CDV by the photographer Upton in St. Anthony, Mn. with the pre-printed caption of 'Chippewa Wedding'. View shows a male and female Chippewa Indians sitting on the side of a hill with two other female Indians in the backround. Looks to me like they're just sitting there - with no particular cause but obviously due to the caption, it must be a portion of the ceremony. Some minor foxing - very good condition.
