President Theodore Roosevelt Signed Oversized Photo. Auto JSA

The sheer size and presence of this piece immediately separate it from the overwhelming majority of Roosevelt autographs we encounter in the hobby. Signed photographs from this era are scarce in any format and were predominantly produced and presented in considerably smaller sizes, making substantial examples like this particularly difficult to obtain. Here, an already oversized original photograph is beautifully preserved on its enormous period mount, resulting in the type of grand presentation piece that simply does not surface with regularity more than a century later.

Adding considerably to its desirability, Roosevelt signed his name without personalization or dedication. Important presentation photographs of the period were commonly inscribed to their original recipients, making clean, non-personalized examples particularly desirable to modern-day collectors. The combination of the bold full-name signature, oversized original photograph and spectacular period presentation will make this a centerpiece of any true historical collection!

Few American Presidents have possessed the enduring charisma of Theodore Roosevelt. Larger than life even during his own era, Roosevelt’s exploits as a soldier, outdoorsman, reformer and statesman captivated the country, while his unmistakable personality and mastery of the burgeoning popular press helped transform him into one of America’s earliest true political celebrities. More than a century later, that fascination remains remarkably strong, making Roosevelt one of the most recognizable American historical figures and one of the most collected Presidential autographs in the hobby.
