Eskimo man seated cross-legged on the floor, wearing labret and holding drill with boy seated on a bunk in the background, circa 1903-1906

A labret is a body piercing, usually below the bottom lip, above the chin. It was a symbol of status among coastal peoples. Probably Dobbs created this negative, due to composition and photographic style. Printed by Lomen Bros. with added Lomen Bros. Studio signature PH Coll 328.537
