There are a great variety of desk designs. Almost all of them incorporate one large area to accomodate company books, which were approximately 16 x 10 1/2 inches. Go here to see a reproduction desk and a photograph of the original on which it is based. In this reproduction, the bottom slot is where the company books fit.
