    I am helping a friend liquidate a lot of stuff because she has way to much stuff LOL. She has an appraisal on the smaller one but she can't find it and can't remember what tribes. Now in her defense she is 80 and wow the amount of stuff. Wondering what I am getting myself into. She has a collection pf over 300 mudmen she also wants rid of ugh. Also how should I clean the are so dusty.

    The first is typical Tohono O'odham (Papago). The second one looks Mexican by the technique, but perhaps earlier than most I have seen. Yours has more interesting figures than usual.
    As for cleaning, it would be safest to just brush them off with a soft brush. Don't get them wet.
