I will soon be creating a heroic size bust of Sitting Bull and having a copy of this mask would be essential in obtaining a great likeness of him. You can see my other busts of Quanah Parker and
Chief Joseph on my web-site. Would please let me know if this
mask is available for purchase and at what price.
I also collect lifemasks and have over 300 in my collection.

Thanks for the comment Henry - I do not own these masks. The Sitting Bull mask is in the USMA museum in West Point. See link above the top picture.

The mask at the bottom is property of and has been displayed at the Custer Battlefield Museum in Garryowen, Montana. Those are two pictures of two different Death Masks.
