George Cordero (1944-1990) signatureHelen Cordero taught all her children and grandchildren how to make storytellers and it is often difficult to tell their work from that of their grandmother.  All of them followed her style accurately.  In this one, George Cordero combined the storyteller figurine and a drummer figurine.

Provenance: This figurine is published in Southern Pueblo Pottery 2,000 Artist Biographies, page 100.
