Two stone lithographs c.1946 by the late Alaskan artist, Fred Machetanz (1908-2002) entitled "Eskimo Mother" and "Accibuck, the Seal Hunter". The first depicts Bula, a shy mother with an enigmatic expression who is "packing" her infant shoulder-high in a pouch fashioned by a sash passing underneath its buttocks and diagonally across Bula's chest and shoulder in front. The second depicts Accibuk (also spelled Achebuk or Accibuck), the artist's first model in Alaska, and staunch friend, to whom the artist traded the original sketch in the winter of 1936. Accibuk possessed an encyclopedic knowledge of native hunting lore and was a natural teller of tales, to which the artist listed with genuine awe or enthusiastic encouragement as the situation demanded. Both are titled lower left, marked 100/93 and 85/100 respectively, and hand-signed in graphite lower right. Each has some discoloration to the edges that does not affect the main image and could easily be hidden by matting/framing; the largest measures approximately 17.5" x 12".

Pocket interiors are a textured plaid fabric as photographed. Perimeter beading shows some areas of loss, and some areas of the felted wool are perforated. The entire piece measures approximately 12" x 27.5" tall.
