Although excellent Rough Rider memorabilia exists, we have never been able to locate another one of these invitations. The Rough Riders, a voluntary cavalry of a fit but motley crew, defeated the Mexican army and saved the border territories for the U.S. in the Spanish American War under the leadership of Theodore Roosevelt. They served in Texas, New Mexico and Cuba. The Battle of San Juan Hill was considered the site of their greatest victory.
