Description: This vintage postcard captures the intricate "Whirling Log" sand painting from a Navajo ceremonial ritual, a rare glimpse into the Yebashi, a nine-day ceremony. This ritual, performed by Medicine Men, involves creating sand paintings using various colored sands, which must be destroyed at sunset to avoid bad omens. The artwork and symbolism are significant in Navajo culture and are believed to bring good fortune. The postcard was produced by Curt Teich (C.T. Art-Colortone) and distributed by Southwest Post Card Co. during the mid-20th century, likely from the 1940s-1950s. It is a beautiful and historically significant item, perfect for collectors of Native American and Southwest postcards.
