EDITORS COMMENTS
Pope Theodore I: The Unconventional Pontiff, a satirical illustration from Puck Magazine, January 2, 1907. This intriguing image depicts former President Theodore Roosevelt (1858-1919) donning the Papal tiara and regal robes, assuming the throne as "Pope Theodore I." The Senate, represented by a group of men, can be seen bowing in submission before him. This humorous cartoon was a commentary on Roosevelt's growing influence and charisma, which had led some to speculate that he might seek a third term in the presidency or even run for the Papacy. The illustration pokes fun at the idea of Roosevelt as a religious leader, highlighting the unique blend of power and personality that defined his public image. The satirical tone of Puck Magazine, a popular American weekly, added to the intrigue and buzz surrounding Roosevelt's potential political future.
