Text on front reads: "Winnebago Indians at Demon's Anvil, Dells of the Wisconsin River." On reverse: "Winnebago Indians at Demon's Anvil. Each summer some of the Winnebago Indians go into camp on the high land above Stand Rock, and near by they hold Ceremonial dances. This is a group of these Indians in gala attire." A group of Ho Chunk Native Americans pose on a rock formation, with the Wisconsin River in the background. Demon's Anvil is also known as Devil's Anvil. |
