Sequah on Clapham Common, London, England. Oil painting by an English painter, c. 1890. Sequah developed a cult-like following by selling his miraculous "Indian" herbal cures along with Wild West-style entertainment. He claimed his cures derived from traditional Native American recipes, but he was actually a Yorkshireman called William Henry Hartley. His products, Sequah's Prairie Flower and Sequah's Oil, were extremely popular, but he was eventually unmasked as a charlatan and his company failed.
