DescriptionA polychrome print of Currier & Ives' "The Arkansas Traveler", speaking with a squatter who fiddlles in front of log cabin while his family looks on. The scene is in the backwoods of Arkansas. Traveler to squatter: "Can you give me some refreshments & a nights lodging?" Squatter, "No sir haven't got any room, nothing to eat. Fiddles away. Traveler- where does this road go to? Squatter- It don't go anywhere, it stays here. -Still fiddling. - Traveler- Why don't you play the rest of that tune? Squatter- Don't know it. Traveler- Here give me the fiddle. -Plays" (2 black & white photos).
