| Title | Tama Indian boys on Rock Island |
| Photographer | Hauberg, John H. |
| Date Original | June 23, 1916 |
| Description | Group portrait of two boys of the Meskwaki (Fox) tribe taken during the Fort Armstrong Centennial celebration on the Rock Island Arsenal. The boys appear to be wearing roach headdresses, ribbon shirts, and multiple beaded necklaces; due to the darkness of the image, it is difficult to discern additional attire. The boys are climbing on a tree that is growing along the banks of a body of water; this water may be the Mississippi River. |
