Washington, D. C., n.d. [ca. 1950]. 13½ x 15¼, approximately . Matted, glazed and framed. Unexamined out of frame. Signed by all along lower edge of matt. AN ELEGANT FORMAL PORTRAIT OF THE VINSON COURT, with the Chief Justice sitting at front center, flanked on his left by Justices STANLEY REED and WILLIAM O. DOUGLAS; on his right by FELIX FRANKFURTER and HUGO BLACK. Standing in the second row are, from left to right: TOM CLARK ROBERT H. JACKSON HAROLD H. BURTON and SHERMAN MINTON. In just four years, President Truman was able to appoint four of the nine Justices (Vinson, Burton, Minton and Clark); the other five were appointed by FDR. They heard some of the most important cases in postwar American history, such as Dennis v. U.S. (1951) which upheld the constitutionality of the Smith Act, outlawing the Communist Party; Shelley v. Kraemer (1948), which outlawed restrictive covenants in housing mortgages, and even a landmark slap against Truman in Youngstown v. Sawyer (1952), which struck down the President's attempt to seize steel mills during the Korean War.
