That’s the photo. I think it was in one of my dad’s American Heritage books. (read those things cover to cover for fun)

I have all the issues of AH from the 50s (when it was the Journal of Local and Regional History) to a few years after they lost Bruce Catton & Oliver Jensen, went softcover, and started repeating themselves.

I learned to read from those things. That's how I knew about Catlin - and when we went to D.C. a little museum near the White House had a huge exhibition of his original paintings. My family could not PRY me out of there!
