Description

Scarce color 13.25 x 9.75 photo of the front of the White House, affixed to its original 17.5 x 14.25 mount, and signed on the mount in blue ballpoint. In fine condition, with overall light soiling, a few tiny spots of surface loss to photo, and some toning and light creasing to mat. Commissioned by the Kennedys in 1961 to produce the Official White House Christmas Card, Hallmark President Joyce C. Hall took several photographs of the north lawn and its beautiful circular pool and water fountain; although this version was ultimately not used for the card, the Kennedys presented mounted copies of this photo as VIP gifts. An appealing oversized image of the White House, the historic landmark that Jackie devoted her time to restoring and preserving. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA.
