The 2009 White House Christmas Ornament - First Electric Christmas Lights

The 2009 White House Christmas ornament commemorates the 24th presidency and it is the second of two produced in Cleveland’s honor by the White House Historical Association. The central hologram depicts the south façade of the White House after an evening snowfall. The warm glow of the first Christmas tree to be illuminated by electric lights is seen through the tall windows of the second floor Oval Room beyond the center of the columned portico. This softly colored view is based on a modern watercolor rendition by Margaret Huddy, a Washington, D.C. based painter. The reverse side of the ornament recreates a scene from the tree-trimming parties of President and Mrs. Cleveland, which were held annually for their children and those of cabinet members. Non-tarnishing 24k gold-finished brass with holographic print measures 3" x 3 Ornament is in very good condition with leaflet and original box, box does show minor wear.
