Archie Roosevelt Paint Set
notes: label: Description
content: President Theodore Roosevelt’s fourth child, Archie Roosevelt, is often remembered as the recipient of an unusual act of sibling affection when his brothers Quentin and Kermit used the White House elevator to take their pony Algonquin to visit Archie in his sick room. Known for his love of reading and puzzles, Archie apparently enjoyed art as well. This paint set belonged to Archie and shows clear signs of use. It includes 18 cubes of paint, 12 paint brushes and pencils, 4 packages of colored charcoal and chalk, copper sheets for tracing , and a variety of containers for mixing paint, etc.
