Our Zaragoza, MX based historian Alberto Galindo discovered this archival photo that was used in the 1952 Tahlequah Star-Citizen article featuring the search for Sequoyah undertaken by Omer Morgan. Unfortunately it was discovered too late to be used in the film and is a poor reproduction. Alberto is still searching for the original or a better reproduction. .
