Description
President Truman leaves the Summer White House with his arms laden with Christmas gifts for delivery. President Truman had earlier carried gifts to his 93 year old mother at Grandview, Missouri, before greeting friends at the Federal Courthouse in Kansas City. This is a good half-figure view of President Truman laughing as he holds Christmas presents. He is in front of his home in Independence. Donor: New York Herald Tribune
