During the first half of the 20th century, several trading card sets were dedicated to the broad topic of Indigenous life. The cards pictured notable individuals, survival practices, hunting, and daily life, often in a manner that reflected stereotypes of the era. Some of these cards included depictions of lacrosse.
Like the cards detailed above, these Indigenous card sets have been issued in many different countries such as the U.S., Canada, Spain and Germany. Perhaps the most well known of these many cards is #35, Ah-No-Je-Nahge, of the 1933 Goudey Indian Gum set.
This card can be found with five different variations, primarily due to slightly differing information on the back of the cards. A brief write-up on the back states that Ah-No-Je-Nahge is “the most proficient ball player of the Sioux Tribe” and “It is said that no white man ever became proficient at this game.”
