What's The Deal With That Seal?

White House Curator Bill Allman is the keeper of all things historic here at the White House. This week, we sat down with him to learn a little more about the official Seal of the President of the United States -- for part of our Catching Up with the Curator video series. He even gave us a little background on the Resolute Desk, which currently sits in the Oval Office.

Hear what he had to say.
