Official 2018 White House Christmas Ornament

$26.97

The White House Historical Association’s 2018 White House Christmas Ornament honors Harry S. Truman, the thirty-third president of the USA. This ornament is designed to illustrate three significant changes made by President Truman right through his administration, one to the Presidential Seal, and two to the White House itself. One side of the ornament features his celebrated Truman Balcony, added in 1947–48 to the South Portico, and the other side features his renovated Blue Room, which, like all of the rooms of the house, used to be dismantled and rebuilt right through the renovation of 1948–52. These two images represent Truman’s White House alterations and restorations, the most extensive work on the house since President George Washington built it in the nation’s dawning and Presidents James Madison and James Monroe restored it after the fire in the War of 1812. The Presidential Seal featured on the top of the ornament reflects the design as changed by Truman. At the start the American eagle looked toward its left talons, which hold a cluster of spears, weapons of war. Truman, in the autumn after he took place of work, had the seal redesigned, turning the eagle’s head away from the spears to its right talons, which hold the olive branches of peace.

The 2018 ornament honors the administration of Harry S. Truman, who served as the thirty-third president of the USA from 1945 to 1953.
