Description
Baumann’s greeting card for 1956, Here’s to a Hopi New Year, reflects his respect for Native American arts and crafts. This particular image of clay figures relates to work he did about 1937 toward publishing a revision of his 1919 book Indian Pottery Old and New. The card was printed in black and silver inks.
