Big Mound Native American From IL Shore 1840 Bloody Island St Louis MO Postcard For Sale

Big Mound Native American From IL Shore 1840 Bloody Island St Louis MO PostcardRare view of the Missouri Native American Indian Mound on the Missouri side of the Mississippi (near what is now N Broadway and I-70). This mound is apparently why St. Louis is known as Mound City. I am a St. Louisan and wonder if the shore view isn\'t also from or very near Bloody Island, famed location for local pistol duels due to a lack of jurisdiction. The island would have been present at the time of this representation and was razed in 1856.Unposted
