Harding, who served as the twenty-ninth president of the United States from 1921 to 1923. As a young boy, Harding dreamed of being a locomotive engineer—a wish that was to come true for 51 minutes when as president, he took over the controls on the Alaskan railroad during the “Voyage of Understanding,” his famous transcontinental speaking and sightseeing tour. The Presidential Special, the train that carried President Harding west at the outset of his ambitious voyage and that would tragically carry his casket back east following his sudden death, just two months later, is the inspiration for our train Christmas ornament for 2014. Decorated with gold tones and enamel finishes, the 33rd annual White House Christmas Ornament is our first ornament to be comprised of two pieces, which can be hung as two separate ornaments or linked together. The locomotive is a detailed miniature replica of one of several steam-powered locomotives that pulled the Presidential Special; it is attached to the coal car that held its fuel. The other miniature car is the Superb, the president’s private heavyweight Pullman car. The last car on the Special, the Superb was outfitted with a public address system. President Harding made appearances and delivered speeches at stops across the country from a platform at the back of the car. The last known photograph of President Harding is an image of him on the Superb shortly before his death in a San Francisco hotel on August 2, 1923. On August 3, President Harding’s casket was placed on board the Superb and began a return trip to Washington, D.C., during which an estimated 3 million people paid their last respects.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"mysite","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49832533950535,"sku":"490","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0682\/6144\/5703\/files\/2014_ornament_2.png?v=1792483689"},{"product_id":"official-white-house-christmas-ornament-special-value-bundle-2022-2021-2020","title":"Official White House Christmas Ornament Special Value Bundle: 2022, 2021, 2020","description":"\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c!--td {border: 1px solid #cccccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e2022 Ornament: The White House Historical Association's Official 2022 White House Christmas Ornament represents the cherished White House tradition of displaying a gingerbread house each holiday in the State Dining Room. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA perfect addition to any holiday tree, this American-made holiday ornament illustrates this decades-long tradition, complete with delicate icing, red and white striped candies, gumdrops, and candy canes.

The drama began when Chief Usher Ike Hoover whispered to the president, “The executive office is on fire!” President Hoover rose from the dinner table and asked the men to follow him to the West Wing. The men proceeded to rescue as many of the president’s papers as time allowed, while First Lady Lou Hoover, informed of the blaze, calmly supervised the party.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe four-alarm fire brought nineteen engine companies and four truck companies to the White House. One hundred and thirty firefighters began to battle the blaze. The bitter cold temperatures froze some of the hoses. By about 10:30 p.m., the fire was extinguished. Fire Chief George Watson reported that excessive heat from a blocked chimney flue or defective electric wiring had caused pamphlets stored in the attic to ignite, and fire had spread quickly. Congress would soon pass a special appropriation to rebuild the uninsured office wing. The Charles H. Tompkins Company of Washington, D.C., completed the work and Hoover and his aides moved back into the remodeled West Wing on April 14, 1930.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis year’s ornament design was created by art student Kayla Whelan, the winner of a national art school design competition created by the Association.
