http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/49222085

An undated broadside advertising an exhibition by J.E. Fisher of a mummified Indian mother and child found in Arizona in 1892. Gives information about them and how popular an attraction it is. Also on display is a petrified baby found at Horseshoe Cave, Ky. in 1894. States admission fee and viewing times. This is probably one of such hoaxes common at that time.
