    Progressive / Bull Moose politicians Oscar Straus and Lucien Bonheur are in this photo, the handwriting on the photo is not the same as the title given to the photo. Maybe a mistake. Mary Condon and Mrs. Woodruff are in other pictures in this series, (see previous pic), but their names in this caption seems to be carried over by mistake.
  • The Library of Congress said:
    Thanks for your comment. You are right about the caption being a mistake. We checked the caption card for this image and the caption should be "Straus, L.L. Bonheur, O. Straus", as it is on the image. We'll fix the information in the source data and reload the description.

    The photo was taken at a reception on September 28, 1912, for New York Bull Moose gubernatorial candidate Oscar Straus. The reception, which kicked off the fall political campaign of the Bull Moose (Progressive) Party in Nassau County, was held at the Port Washington, Long Island, home of former Congressman Bourke Cockran, who in 1912 was a candidate for congress on the Bull Moose ticket.
