History: First Lady Grace Coolidge holding her pet raccoon Rebecca during the Easter egg roll at the White House, April 18 1927. Rebecca came from Mississippi and was to have been part of a Thanksgiving meal, but the Coolidges found her to be almost domesticated and too pleasant to be sauteed. [3300x4096]
