Abstract

Sheet music for "When Teddy Comes Home with His Gun," a satire concerning Theodore Roosevelt's African safari. Arranged by Christian A. Praetorius. Cover design, blue on white ground, is an illustration of Roosevelt marching with his rifle over his shoulder, dressed for his safari. On the ground behind him are elephant and hippo carcasses and a pile of bones. Three monkeys climb a pole behind Roosevelt. At the top of the pole is a Pach Bros. portrait of Roosevelt. Chickens, birds, a dog and a cat react to his coming (cat arches back, dog creeps away).
