Description

Exquisite image of the rugged President Roosevelt at Yosemite

Incredible vintage pearl-finish 8 x 10 Underwood and Underwood photo of Roosevelt seated at the edge of a cliff in Yosemite, signed and inscribed in fountain pen “To Conde Hamlin, with the best wishes of Theodore Roosevelt.” Photo is stamped on the reverse, in part: “From Sterograph…by Underwood & Underwood, New York.” In fine condition, with some mild rippling and surface marks, and some silvering to darker areas of the image. The original stereograph, housed in the Library of Congress is captioned ‘Amidst America’s noblest scenery—President Roosevelt on Glacier Point, Yosemite Valley, California.” This photo was taken in May 1903 as President Roosevelt toured Yosemite with naturalist John Muir. A splendid image capturing Roosevelt’s determination as well as his love for the outdoors. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
