I'm trying to find images of elaborate masks made by American Indians on the northwest coast?

A friend told me about these very good masks made by the aforementioned group. Some had masks within masks and apparently they had seperated moving parts. Anyone know where I can find images of these?I'm trying to find images of elaborate masks made by American Indians on the northwest coast?
Here are some art gallery links with the very-best quality art from noted NW artists (Richard Hunt, etc.), and great photos:

They've had masks that open up like ';double doors'; to show a smaller mask inside (called ';transformation masks'; wait til you see the PRICES for these), and usually they have ';raven'; masks with working jaws, but I haven't checked their current inventory of late.





Hope you enjoy the pics.I'm trying to find images of elaborate masks made by American Indians on the northwest coast?
