Abstract

President Carter uses this small desk as part of his home office in Plains, Georgia, and made it himself. It is a simple walnut writing desk with a slide-out wing. The piece was recorded as part of a 3D documentation and archival program undertaken by the Digital Heritage and Humanities Collections in the University of South Florida Libraries and is in collaboration with the Carter Family, the National Park Service, and the Friends of the Jimmy Carter Historical Park. The piece was documented using structured light scanning with external sensor imaging.
