WSP-08B – Crow Warrior Scout with Telescope
By the 19th century, trade had brought a wide variety of manufactured goods onto the Great Plains, and objects of European or American manufacture could become highly valued possessions.
WSP-08B – Crow Warrior Scout with Telescope depicts a Crow warrior making practical use of one such item. The telescope dramatically increases his ability to observe distant movement across the vast open landscape, making it particularly useful to a scout.
The combination of traditional warrior and imported technology also illustrates the changing material culture of the Plains as Indigenous peoples incorporated useful traded items into their everyday lives.
The Military Workshop offers WSP-08B as a particularly interesting John Jenkins figure combining frontier history, trade and the vital role of the Plains scout.
