Mourning Mask, with bronze mount

I had posted an image of this mask, previously, that was a scan of a B/W photo. I wanted to let people get an idea of what the original colour was. I didn't think that the slide scanning process would pan out, but it has worked suprisingly well, for some of the slides. I would like to thank Ryan at the UMAYC in Fort Frances for letting me use his (much better) scanner to digitize some of my old pics and slides.(There's a link to his blog in my Good Stuff sidebar.) This should let me post some more of the Minneapolis material than I have been able to, so far.

I remember first seeing that mask, hanging in your trailer at the fort. I was intrigued by it then, and was surprised to see it here. I am sorry that you lost it.
