Dear Sir:
I remember you very well and also the baskets, the Cranberry basket was made by the Makah, I have a beautiful Yakutat Alaska basket made of Spruce roots & maiden hair fern for 8.00 called the sacred charm basket.
The letterhead highlights various items for sale, including "Eskimo carvings," "rare agates and mineral specimens," and "sea shells and Indian baskets." The illustrated border showcases a mix of sea-themed imagery like seahorses and fish, along with totem poles and a coin souvenir design.Subject
