Cabinet card by George W. Scott, with his Yankton, SD, imprint in the recto margin, stamped Sitting Bull's Cabin below the image but inked over with Waiting for Sitting Bull to come out. In this re-enactment of the attempted arrest and subsequent killing of Sitting Bull, three men are posed with rifles pointed at the open door of Sitting Bull's log cabin; a fourth man leans against the side of the house. The cabin, located on the Grand River, was later removed to Chicago for display at the World's Columbian Exposition in 1893. Provenance: Property of Another Owner Condition: Upper left corner bumped, and two extreme corners of the print bent back, else very good.
