Additional Information
Issued annually by the White House Historical Association, Official White House Christmas Ornaments are hung on millions of Christmas trees each December. But the ornament program did not begin as a series. When the Angel Gabriel ornament was issued by the Association in 1981, it was an immediate success and the phenomenon began. Today the ornaments are a popular collector’s item and a long-standing and beloved tradition. This book includes the collected stories behind the design of each of the forty-three ornaments issued from 1981 to 2023. The forty-third ornament, made for 2023, honors President Gerald R. Ford with a festive holiday wreath decorated with symbols from Ford's life and presidency.
