This photograph of President Theodore Roosevelt and others on the back of a train car in the Panama Canal Zone was taken in November 1906 by W. A. Fishbaugh (also referred to as William A. Fishbaugh).

With its origins in Ecuador, Panama hats were recommended to travelers to South America since the mid-19th century for their protection from the elements.

Eager to prove himself as a real frontier hunter, he acquired a custom-made buckskin suit and purchased his first ranch. After returning to New York, he sat for photographs at a studio while wearing the outfit in 1885. A former governor of New York, Roosevelt became president upon the assassination of William McKinley on September 14, 1901, and served until March 4, 1909.
