School-desk.
One of compact form, usually having within itself a seat for one row of boys, backed by a desk for the next rear row; as in the illustrations. In Fig. 4667, both seat and desk are folded, while the room is being swept; a convenient condition for stowage also during transportation. Fig. 4668 is a form in which a flap of the desk only is folding, covering up the other half, which has recesses or drawers. See also desk, Fig. 1618, page 689. |
