Indian Symbols? (Ontario)

While I do not for a moment believe in the accuracy of this postcard, I do love the historicity of it! It captures perfectly a certain time of orientalism and romanticism toward indigenous populations. If this is a Canadian postcard (and not an import from the US), it means we North Americans have shared some similar scripts about indigenous populations!
