Transcription of handwritten/script font in original: [Cover/Title page] Cedar Drug, Cedar, Michigan, Presents The Story of Indian Basket Making [Text:] A Black-Ash tree of 6 inch (more or less) in diameter is cut to obtain material for baskets. After the bark is peeled off, the log is pounded with the dull end of an axe until a year’s growth is loose and can be pulled off. This procedure is repeated for each year’s growth. A strip of a year’s growth is split to make thinner strips by starting with a knife and pulling apart. These strips are then scrapped with a knife until both sides are smooth. Strips are dyed and excess is wiped off with a cloth. After the dye is dry and set these strips are cut with scissors into desired widths and sorted for various types of baskets. After selecting color combinations and widths basket weaving begins which takes many hours and sometimes days. It takes many years of training to acquire skill at weaving. Like true artists each basket weaver has individual style and color combinations. With a little experience and good observation an average person can tell which weaver made which baskets. The End [Signed] Agnes Rapp
