Saratoga Springs, the New York resort town known for its mineral springs and racetrack, is the place this title names for a picture of Theodore Roosevelt. The record gives no date, and the title comes from caption information the Bain News Service wrote on its negatives, which has not been independently verified, so the exact occasion is uncertain. The George Grantham Bain Collection holds news pictures made mostly in the early twentieth century, when press photographers recorded politicians, travelers and public events for newspapers. Roosevelt was a frequent subject of such coverage, first as governor of New York and then as president.
