Gavel constructed of wood removed from the White House during its 1927 renovation, measuring 10˝ long with a cylindrical 3.5˝ x 1.75˝ head, bearing an attached metal plaque that reads: "1815 - Madison to Coolidge - 1927, Lumber Removed from Roof of White House / After More Than a Century of Historical Use, Lank Woodwork Company, Inc., Washington, D.C." In fine condition, with dimples to either end of head. Repurposed relics using wood from the 1927 White House renovation are considerably scarcer than those from the Truman administration's renovation, and gavels, in particular, are among the most desirable of the renovation formats.
