Proper Description: "Standing figure of Indian with proper right arm raised above head, proper right leg bent with foot on small step. Proper left hand holds tablet with letters and symbols on front.

"At the corner of Cherokee Street and Jefferson Avenue is the biggest, ugliest Indian I have ever seen. He has his hand raised as if to welcome you to the Cherokee Street district. The face on this thing looks like his underwear is too tight. Truly scary when you are driving along and all of a sudden this warrior chief appears." ` Roadside America
