For your consideration is this early edition of Garrison's Bros photo of Theodore (Teddy) Roosevelt on a lion hunt in 1903. Theodore Roosevelt Jr., also known as Teddy or T. R., was the 26th president of the United States, serving from 1901 to 1909. Roosevelt previously was involved in New York politics, including serving as the state's 33rd governor for two years. Fred L. Garrison arrived in Rifle shortly after its founding, in December 1897. As the business expanded, Fred and his brother, Orson, constructed a permanent wood-framed gallery on the junction of Railroad Avenue and First Street. Garrison used the Rifle Gallery as his base, and his photographic wagon and team became a frequent sight on the roadways of Colorado's Western Slope, hunting for shooting chances and commerce. For more over 50 years, the Garrison studio was a Rifle icon. They documented the expansion and progress of Rifle and its neighboring settlements, as well as how the era's machines worked, what crops were gathered, and how people spent their leisure time. This photo shows four men sitting in a grassy area having lunch during the hunt. Teddy Roosevelt sits on the left side, closest to the viewer. He looks slightly over his shoulder at the photographer as he eats some food. The photo shows good condition overall with some wear present from its age and use over the years, but no major signs of damage is noted. It measures 8" L x 10" W and weighs under 6 ounces. The exact age of this old photo is unknown.
