Roosevelt, Theodore
Outdoor Pastimes of an American Hunter
New York: Charles Scribner's Sons 1905. First edition. Hardcover. Fair. 369pp. Octavo 23 cm Brown cloth with gilt stamped titles on the backstrip and front board and a gilt stamped animal bust on the front cover. Top edge gilt. Worn. Ex-library with the usual markings including a pocket and labels. Text block has almost completely come away from the spine. Hinges covered with paper strips. Roosevelt abandoned his political work in 1884 due to his poor health. He invested part of the fortune he had inherited from his father in a cattle ranch in the Badlands of Dakota Territory thinking that he would remain in the West for many years. He became a passionate hunter especially of big game and a strong believer in the wild outdoor life which brought him health and strength. In 1886 Roosevelt returned to New York remarried and once more plunged into politics. Charles Scribner's Sons hardcover

Roosevelt, Theodore
Outdoor Pastimes of an American Hunter.
New York: Charles Scribner’s Sons 1905. First edition of Roosevelt's important collection of first-hand hunting accounts including a lengthy description of newly created wilderness reserves. Octavo original cloth gilt titles to the spine and front panel frontispiece portrait of Roosevelt with tissue guard present illustrated with photographs. Signed by the author in the year of publication on the second preliminary leaf "with regards of Theodore Roosevelt Dec 11th 1905." In near fine condition crease to the front free endpaper. Trade editions are uncommon signed especially in the year of publication. "Like Audubon William Elliott and Judge Caton Roosevelt liked to chase deer with horses and hounds: ‘To be able to ride through woods and over rough country at full speed rifle or shotgun in hand and then to leap off and shoot at a running object is to show that one has the qualities which made the cavalry of Forrest so formidable in the Civil War.’ This volume also contains an excellent chapter on ‘Books on Big Game’ in which Roosevelt reveals his admiration for two other giants among deer hunters: Judge Caton and T.S. Van Dyke" Wegner 234. Charles Scribner’s Sons hardcover

ROOSEVELT, ELEANOR
Personal Badges for the 1960 Democratic National Convention; with Typed Letter Signed
Los Angeles: np 1960. FIRST EDITION. Fine. ELEANOR ROOSEVELT'S OFFICIAL CONVENTION BADGES FOR THE 1960 DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION. With a signed letter from Roosevelt to her good friend Mayris Chaney concerning her arrival at the convention. TWO BADGES: Decorative medals held with red-white-and-blue ribbon the first reading "Mrs. F.D. Roosevelt / Former First Lady" on two metal bars between beautiful engraved patriotic designs at the top and bottom surrounding the text "United States of America" and "1960 Democratic National Convention Los Angeles"; the second badge again with the beautiful patriotic emblems reads "Honored Guest". The medals include the original box.<br /> <br /> On July 10 1960 the day before the Democratic National Convention in Los Angeles Eleanor Roosevelt refused to ride in a limousine to a reception preferring to walk half a mile with reporters. The absence of former President Harry Truman underscored the Democrats' break with the past and cast a warm light on former First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt who attended the convention to support the faltering and ultimately doomed Presidential Campaign of Adlai Stevenson. In speaking for Stevenson Roosevelt questioned whether Kennedy's Catholic faith might cost him votes and said he didn't have the support of African Americans. Instead she backed a Stevenson-Kennedy political ticket. This trip in 1960 proved to be the final Political Convention which she attended. After the election Roosevelt chaired the John F. Kennedy administration's ground-breaking Committee which helped start Second-wave Feminism the "Presidential Commission on the Status of Women." In 1999 she was ranked in the top ten of Gallup's List of Most Widely Admired People of the 20th Century.<br /> <br /> Her letter to Mayris Chaney included in this collection is typed on Roosevelt's personal New York City letterhead and reads in full:<br /> <br /> June 24 1960<br /> Dearest Tiny:<br /> <br /> I have had another change in plans and will arrive the night of July 10th getting in at 7:30 p.m. but you need not meet me as Frankie is having a car and driver at my disposal. <br /> <br /> Let's hope this is the last change! Anyhow it means I will be able to come to you sooner than I expected and this is a joy.<br /> With much love<br /> Devotedly<br /> signed E.R.<br /> <br /> handwritten Frankie is meeting me & - if avail we can come for you later after dinner.<br /> <br /> Mayris Chaney Mrs. Hershey Martin was a renowned dancer who worked with Roosevelt in the Office of Civilian Defense and one of her closet friends for almost twenty years. Their friendship began in the early thirties after Roosevelt's bodyguard Earl Miller introduced his charge to Chaney and her dance partner Eddie Fox. Roosevelt felt so at ease with Martin that she quickly nicknamed her "Tiny" included her in the close circle of friends with whom she could relax in private at Val-Kill and the White House in their homes and on vacation and served as Godmother to Martin's daughter Anna Eleanor named after Eleanor Roosevelt. The letter includes the original mailing envelope. <br /> <br />

ROOSEVELT, Franklin D
Photographic portrait inscribed to the Governor of Hawaii.
1934. Presented to the governor during Pearl Harbour A large and imposing portrait inscribed by the 32nd President underneath the image "For Joseph B. Poindexter with the regards of his friend Franklin D. Roosevelt 1934". The recipient 1869-1951 was the eighth Governor of Hawaii appointed by Roosevelt in January 1934 and serving until August 1942. Poindexter welcomed Roosevelt to Hawaii in July 1934 when he was the first sitting president to visit the territory. Poindexter's administration saw the introduction of new welfare provision and labour laws in the mould of Roosevelt's New Deal. He was a firm advocate of Hawaiian statehood and held a plebiscite in 1940 in which the change was backed by two thirds of the electorate an important step on the winding path to statehood in 1959. Poindexter led the response to the attack on Pearl Harbor and controversially placed Hawaii under martial law.

ROOSEVELT, THEODORE
Photograph Signed
np: np 1907. framed. Fine. Beautiful photograph signed and inscribed by Roosevelt as president: “To / Mrs. Edgar D. Crumpacker / with the regards of / Theodore Roosevelt / Mar 6th 1907â€. A rich warm-toned image of Roosevelt sitting in profile looking magisterial. Beneath the image on the original matte Roosevelt has presented the photo to Charlotte Ann Lucas Crumpacker “Mrs. Edgar D. Crumpackerâ€. The Crumpacker’s were very active politically – Edgar Crumpacker served eight terms in Congress 1897 - 1913 as a Republican representative from Indiana and notably was part of Roosevelt’s 1905 inaugural committee. He is best known for introducing and championing the Crumpacker Bill – an attempt to fight the widespread suppression of the African American vote in the southern states. The bill unfortunately did not pass.
