Hi!
A few years back the MFA Houston had
a masking exhibit and there was a wonderful text: Masks: Faces of Culture
by John Nunley 1999.
Another text is Down From the Shimmering
Sky: Masks of the Northwest Coast by Peter MacNair 1998.
These might be helpful clues since they
were both published to accompany exhibitions.
Good luck

This did prove to be quite a stumper! There
seems to be no on-line source for such images,
although I am sure I have seen them in museum
gift shops.
You could try contacting some museum shops;
perhaps they have jpg images of their posters
which they could forward to you.
