Indian notes
Indian notes is a 1924 museum publication from the Museum of the American Indian, Heye Foundation in New York, aimed at readers interested in Native American collections and objects. Its plates show archaeological stone fragments with carved surfaces, a shallow stone bowl or mortar, a painted ceramic jar with banded necks and chevron patterns, and small wooden or stone trough forms. A designer could draw on the bold geometric banding, chevron and diamond motifs, and the weathered stone textures.
