Unusual lot of material removed from the White House during its expansive renovations undertaken by Harry S. Truman in 1950, consisting of four stones—three pieces of marble (ranging from .5˝ to 1.25˝ in length) and one piece of schist (2˝)—and an 'L'-headed nail that measures 2.25˝. The lot is completed by its original shipping box and rare packing materials from the Commission on Renovation of the Executive Mansion, issued as "Order No. 18504" and "Item No. 4," as well as its small presentation plaque with presidential seal that reads: "Original White House Material, Removed in 1950." In overall fine condition, with expected wear from age and use.
