ALS, one page, 4.5 x 3.5, Sagamore Hill letterhead, February 3, 1914. In full: “I choose all hickory; if that has been chosen, then the tulip tree. Both are straight American trees!” In fine condition, with a uniform block of toning over text and signature, and mounting remnants on the reverse. Accompanied by an original head-and-shoulders portrait of the determined pioneer. Written just weeks before the former president’s infamous Roosevelt-Rondon Expedition, this clean and crisp note showcases the enthusiastic spirit that he applied to his work as an environmentalist and advocate for the conservation of land and natural resources.
