First print collates pictographs from nine winter counts depicting the meteor shower of 1833. MS (?) identifications on the back are by Hiatt. This print also reproduces a fanciful drawing entitled "The Sioux Historian." Second print is of Iron Dog's winter count, apparently owned by Hiatt, marked "Copyright 1923"; very badly faded.
