President Harding's Body Arrives at the Capitol, Side A

This stereograph by Keystone View Company shows President Warren G. Harding's funeral procession arriving at the U.S. Capitol on August 8, 1923 where his body would lie in state for mourners to pay respects. While in San Francisco toward the end of his "Voyage of Understanding," Harding suddenly died on August 2, 1923, most likely from a heart attack. The caption reads: "President Harding's Body Arriving at the Capitol, Washington, D. C."
