Plaster modello di una testa bisonte scolpita da A. Phimister Proctor e data a Theodore Roosevelt. Nel 1909, Theodore Roosevelt sostituì i leoni scolpiti in pietra sul manto della Sala da pranzo di Stato alla Casa Bianca con intagli del bisonte americano. TR ha visto il leone come simbolo della monarchia europea e ha pensato che un animale unico, come il bisonte, dovrebbe essere usato invece.
