Item Description
The Spirit Lake Tribe (in Santee Dakota: Mni Wakan Oyate, formerly known as Devils Lake Sioux) is a federally recognized tribe based on the Spirit Lake Dakota Reservation located in east-central North Dakota on the southern shores of Devils Lake It is made up of people of the Pabaksa (Iháŋkthuŋwaŋna), Sisseton (Sisíthuŋwaŋ) and Wahpeton (Waȟpéthuŋwaŋ) bands of the Dakota tribe. Established in 1867 in a treaty between Sisseton-Wahpeton Bands and the United States government, the reservation, , consists of 1,283.777 square kilometres (495.669 sq mi) of land area, primarily in Benson and Eddy counties. Smaller areas extend into Ramsey, Wells and Nelson counties. According to the tribal enrollment office in 2014, the tribe had 7,256 members enrolled members. At the time of the 2010 census, 3,587 members out of a total of 4,238 people (including non-tribal members) were residing on the reservation. The unemployment rate was 47.3% in 2000. The largest community on the reservation is Fort Totten.Spirit Lake Tribe began issuing stamps required for hunting on the Reservation in 1996. A total of 10 different stamps were issued for the 2001-2002 season. Fewer than 500 stamps were issued and after the season, remaining stamps were sold to collectors at a discount from the original high issue price. Individual stamps usually sell for $15-$20 each. The entire set is being offered at this time for a favorable price. I have a few of these, so what shown is a stock photo. I guarantee all stamps to be mint, never hinged as originally issued by the Spirit Lake Tribe.Other years are available, please inquire.We have the most comprehensive stock of Indian Reservation stamps. Although very few are offered on Hip, we do have them in stock. Please inquire.Seller Information
