Tlingit Haida Pacific Northwest Coast shaman's carved totem charm pendant C 1900

Description

This item is from a large, three generation collection of Native American art and artifacts from the estate of Bernard Clayton Conger. Conger was an avid collector of beads, points, pipes, effigys pottery and other items. He
traveled from the Eastern US first to California and then to southern Oregon. Part of his collection was pictured in 'Who's Who in Indian Relics No. 7 1988
edition. His collection consisted of his own personal finds as well as his father's and grandfather's collections. He also had Mississippian pottery from Roy Pohler's collection, a few pieces of which I'll be selling. Please see my other auctions for more unique pieces from this estate.
Offered here is a wonderful Shaman's carved totem or charm
from the BERNARD CONGER Collection.
This is wonderful and very early. I've only seen these in museums, so it is a rare find. I have 3 others.
As you can see, this is a nice collector piece, circa 1900. Condition as seen, collection note 702.
