(ROOSEVELT, Theodore) RIIS, Jacob. THEODORE ROOSEVELT THE CITIZEN. New York: The Outlook Company, 1904.
Second Printing in publisher's original decorated cloth. Illustrated with plates. This copy virtually unique as it is INSCRIBED and SIGNED by both the author and the subject, as President. Riis's inscription is dated 5 August 1908. Roosevelt writes: "with the best wishes of/Theodore Roosevelt/The White House/Jan. 18th 1909." The addition of "The White House" by Roosevelt is notable as prior to Roosevelt's administration, the residence was known as the "President's Palace," the "President's House," and the "Executive Mansion." It was Teddy Roosevelt who officially named it"The White House" in 1901. Of the many books signed by Roosevelt we have both handled and seen, we have never before encountered one in which he has noted it with his signature..

First Edition, cloth, Hinges cracked and neatly repaired. Still Near Fine.
