Well........he lied. Made by Remple Mfg. Co. Akron, Ohio in 1948. Designed by Fred G Reinert Patent # 2469892. He is "Chief Wahoo" mascot for the Cleveland Indians baseball team. It originally had a red feather in his head mounted vertical.
If you scroll down this link you will see your Indian as mascot for Cleveland Indians . He will be down page a bit so keep scrolling down
Very nice piece even if it is not Pontiac giveaway :-)

Dear Slackjack and Manikin,
Thank you very much for the important information, I live in Brazil and love the americana from 40's and 50's... if I did not show and tell , I certainly would never know...
Well Salles, let me be one of the first to welcome you to the "Show and Tell". continue to post, enjoy viewing your postings.
Welcome Salles from Brazil to CW show and tell !
I think the Indians mascot is much cooler than a Pontiac gift! Welcome, Salles!
thank you, Stefdesign
