Featured in this lot is this albumen photograph of George Armstrong Custer from American photographer David F. Barry born in 1854 and died in 1934; from the ex-collection of the C.M. Russell Museum and John Kleinschmidt. The photograph features a wonderfully and professionally crafted albumen photograph that is blind stamped in the bottom right hand corner: Barry. The photograph comes with a museum or collectors tag that reads as follows: 1396-87 O'Dell. The photograph shows a portrait photograph of George Armstrong Custer showing his iconic moustache and wearing civilian clothing, very unique as most photographs of Custer show him in his uniform. George Armstrong Custer (December 5, 1839 – June 25, 1876) was a United States Army officer and cavalry commander in the American Civil War and the American Indian Wars. The condition of this D. F. Barry albumen photograph is good with no obvious signs of damage to the photograph and the frame shows very minimal wear to the wood but otherwise shows a good overall condition. The measurements of this framed photograph is 11 1/2" x 8 1/4" and the visible photograph measures 6 1/4" x 4 1/4". The collective weight of this photograph is 12oz. David Francis Barry (1854-1934) was one of the most noted photographers of the American Indian and U.S. Army participants in the Sioux War of 1876 and is attributed with some of the most recognizable surviving images from this period in the history of the American West. Barry first came to the west in the 1870’s to apprentice under photographer O.S. Goff, who worked as the photographer at Fort Abraham Lincoln. It was from this post the Lieutenant Colonel George Armstrong Custer led his Seventh U.S. Cavalry division in May 1876 to the battle of the Little Bighorn in southwestern Montana. This is considered one of the largest collection of Barry photographs from one historic Montana family offered for public sale.
