Description: An outside photograph of a Native American man identified as Uma-Som-Kin. He is dressed in full regalia and sitting on a horse, next to a river. For his headdress, the man is wearing a bonnet with a single trail of eagle feathers. He is wearing a coat made out of a Pendleton blanket. He is wearing leggings with a design on the cuff and beaded moccasins. Because no stirrups can be seen, it would appear that he is riding either bareback or using a blanket for a saddle. He is holding the horse's bridle in both hands. The horse has a spotted coat. Across the river, on the opposite bank, are two cottonwood trees. In the background are rolling hills.

Description: An interior photograph of an older Native American man posing in front of a cloth or canvas backdrop. The photographer has identified the man as Som-Kin. He is wearing a flat-brimmed cowboy hat held in place with a braided string or cord tied under his chin. His hair is unbound. He is dressed in a cloth shirt, over which is a cloth or wool vest, a buckskin coat, with a scarf around his neck. The buckskin coat is fringed around the shoulders, end of sleeves, collar edge and coat seams. On the left side of the vest is a badge with the title, "US Indian Police." Attached to a vest button below the badge is a pocket watch chain.

Description: An outside photograph of a Native American man who has been identified as Uma-Som-Kin. He is standing with a horse and dog to his left, and a tipi behind him. His hair is in braids with hair ornaments or ties attached to their ends and he is wearing a cowboy hat. He is dressed in a shirt, and over that a coat made out of a Pendleton Blanket. In his right hand he is holding a rifle, and in his left hand both a hand drum and horse reins. He is wearing either calf-high boots or moccasins. The horse or pony has a spotted coat; it is bareback with what appears to be a leather halter. The dog is between the horse and man. It also has a mottled or spotted coat, with uncropped ears and unknown breed heritage. The tipi is made of canvas layers. There is a cloth or canvas doorway directly behind the man; on the back of the tipi leans a broken tule mat. There are small wooden poles and various pieces of wood also leaning against the tipi's exterior. In the background are bushes and deciduous trees, perhaps cottonwood trees, leading to the hillside.

Description: An outside photograph of a Native American man, who has been identified as Uma-Som-Kin. He is dressed in full native regalia, and sitting on a horse that is standing next to a river's edge. For his headdress, the man is wearing a bonnet with a single trail of eagle feathers. He is wearing a coat made out of a Pendleton blanket. He is wearing leggings that exhibit a geometrical design on the cuff--perhaps beaded--and beaded moccasins. Because no stirrups can be seen, it would appear that he is riding either bareback or using a blanket for his saddle. He is holding the horse's bridle in his left hand. The horse or pony has a spotted coat. The river disappears around a bend, blending into the hillside in the background. The terrain around the river shows rocks, grass, dirt and brush. On the river's opposite bank is a fence line that runs along the river's path. In the far background is an expanse of rolling hills.
