2012 White House Historical Association Taft Christmas Ornament

The official 2012 White House Historical Association ornament features President and Mrs. William Taft being chauffeured by George H. Robinson in the White Motor Company's Model "M", a seven passenger steam-powered touring car. The President purchased this dark green convertible between his election and inauguration.

While in office, Taft was the first president to use motorcars instead of horse drawn carriages for transportation. Look for the detail on the grill of the car in the White Motor Company logo, the Presidential seal on the doors, black fenders and Made in America on the license plate.

How appropriate for our "Road to the White House" 2012 theme is this free standing brass ornament.

Made in America of highly polished brass with a coat of nickel finished 24K gold.
