Comment
From the framed display:
"1767-1838
Fearless, proud-hearted, boisterous Sauk Indian warrior and Chief under Keokuk. In desperation he instigated the futile Black Hawk War in 1832 to get land back. Captured. Released by President Jackson."
#2 of 13 in the Husky Oil Co "Rugged Americans" collection from Franklin Mint.
