Jennifer: I have a photograph of the White House draped for the death of President Garfield. I realize that that was in the 1880s and that the White House wasn't finished in GW's time, but at least it's an example! I don't know how much the technique would have changed....did draping change with fashion? Let me know if you would like me to scan it in and e-mail it to you off list.
