A vertical monochrome brown photogravure depicts the face of Bull Chief, looking directly forward. A dark, furry headdress is topped with two large, upward-curving horns that arc toward the upper corners. A patterned headband wraps his forehead above deep facial creases and a firm, straight mouth. A light fabric tie sits at his neck over a textured garment. Text at the bottom reads "BULL CHIEF – APSAROKE."
