<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1018120, member: 66&quot;]Fraser said that three models were used.&nbsp; He initially identified Two Moons and Iron Tail as being used for models for the nickel but was not able to remember the name of the third model.&nbsp; John Big Tree was self proclaimed as the third model, but Fraser did not remember ever having used him as a model. (Although he said he could have used him at one time and that he &quot;Had a magnificent head&quot;.)&nbsp; Another thing that adds confusion is that Fraser did use at one time a model named Big Tree (At one time Fraser did say that he could have been the third model.).&nbsp; This was not the same person as John Big Tree.</p><p><br /></p><p>While these Indians were used for the models, none of them actually posed for it.&nbsp; They had been used by Fraser previously and he used features from his previous works to create the composite portrait.</p><p><br /></p><p>And the correct name of the statue mentioned earlier for which Fraser is so well known is End of the Trail, not Trail of Tears.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
