"Buffalo Bill" and the Siouan Image.
Rogers, Phyllis
American Indian Culture and Research Journal, v7 n3 p43-53 1983
The popular art of William F. "Buffalo Bill" Cody--lithographic posters advertising his Wild West Show and depicting the Indians who performed in it--created the visual image of the American Indian that we have come to know as the Siouan stereotype. By contrast the artists' images of the American Indian were inaccessible to the general public and remained unknown. (JHZ)
