Here Theodore Roosevelt steps away from a line of people to greet a group of newspapermen, a small, informal moment that shows how closely the press followed him. The picture dates to about 1910, roughly a year after he left the presidency in 1909, when he remained one of the most recognizable figures in the country and reporters pursued his every public appearance. The catalog record does not name the specific occasion, but the scene reflects the close, sometimes friendly relationship between Roosevelt and the press that marked his years in public life.
