In the early 1920's the Fred Harvey Catering Company and Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad collaborated on new idea, "Indian Detours", to introduce the Native American cultures of the Southwest to the public via the passengers of the railway. Before the end of that decade passengers on a trip to California would not hesitate to take a 'Detour' to visit the 'Indians'. The Fred Harvey Company had crew of guides and a fleet of specially outfitted Packard automobiles (Harveycars) and buses (Harveycoaches) that were hardy enough to take the eager tourists on the unimproved trails to the various Indian villages and pueblos of New Mexico and Arizona. This piece depicts the interaction between the tourists and the inhabitants of a pueblo in 1928. Purchased for the Permanent Collection Booth Western Art Museum Cartersville Georgia.
