Super scarce 14x27 Teddy Roosevelt and the Rough Riders Spanish American War:
$6000.00
Over 5000 troops photographed. They look like ants or background brush because there is so many of them in a very tight formation. And the closeups are famous generals I’m told they are Teddy Roosevelt and the Rough Riders. There is a puncture in the upper left hand corner that hasn't been poked entirely thru but the paper is still there (it is not interfering with any image except white sky which I have taken a closeup of). This is actually 2 large photos glued to a cardboard backing which was the technique in 1898. The seam is noticeable but only if you are looking for it. I don't know whether the frame is original or not but it is definitely quite old with a wooded backing. No glass included since I cracked it while removing it from the wall it was mounted on. The multitude of troops and the size of the photo make this a very rare find. I am not an expert on vintage photography but I will try to answer as may questions as you have.Shipping price includes appropriate packaging and insurance.
