Description

Former President Harry S. Truman grins as he displays a cartoon on the front page of the Washington Star today depicting him as a sport wearing tourist with a box camera standing at the White House fence taking a picture of the Executive Mansion. He enjoyed the jibe so much he asked the cartoonist, Gib Crockett, for the original. From: Houston Post.
