Whoop-d-do! As Indians charged into battle, or attacked a settlement, they let forth the most blood-curdling yells imaginable. How do we know? Because card number B-7 says so! This is an original hand-drawn pencil sketch. It’s the one-of-a-kind artwork piece that was drawn as part of the successful Wild West trading card series. This card, titled The War Whoop was one of the Indian custom cards. There are some minor adhesive smudges.The original sketch was later colorized, printed, and sold in packages that includes a piece of gum. Measuring 3 x 3 1/2”, the card is above a typewritten paragragh.
