Hidden Guitar

The hidden guitar depicts a statue of a prominent African American and stands in front of the Galt House building (both on the pin and in real life). York (1770 - before 1832) was an African-American explorer best known for his participation with the Lewis and Clark Expedition. Enslaved by William Clark's father and passed down through a will to William Clark, he performed hard manual labor without pay, but participated as a full member of the expedition. Like many other expedition members, his ultimate fate is unclear. There is evidence that after the expedition's return, Clark had difficulty compelling York to resume his former status, and York may have later escaped or been freed, but nothing is entirely clear on this point. Painted style. 5 lines print. Logo - Musical Theme - Guitars Drums Logos etc Pattern. This pin was sold through retail and/or online. Base Material is Gold Appearance
