Roosevelt photographs stir cigar trade protest in New York
In New York on October 1, President Roosevelt faced a dispute over using his photograph for tobacco trade promotions. A fifth of a batch shows Roosevelt while others depict Edward, the Mikado, William, and the Czar, angering cigar dealers who called it insulting. Secretary Loeb said the matter would be raised with the company. Roosevelt also received a Civil War historical cane, praised by an elderly donor. An auction ad notes a sale of standard weaves starting Thursday at 192.
