This is kinda' unclear. The article says that the desk was used by every vice president since Hobart since 1897. But Wilson was vice president in 1873. So Wilson didn't actually use the Wilson Desk? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.137.134.61 ( talk) 12:57, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
Something wrong here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.189.103.145 ( talk) 11:38, 26 May 2012 (UTC)
The statement that the Watergate Tapes were made by an apparatus hidden in the Wilson desk doesn't cite a source. Weren't they made from the Theodore Roosevelt desk, which was in the Executive Office Building room 180, from where Nixon did most of his work? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.148.114.45 ( talk) 18:41, 7 March 2014 (UTC)
Ive been tryign to figure out what desk Hubert Humphrey was using in the Vice Presidents Office since it was obviously so special that he moved the Wilson desk out for it. I found this picture that shows Humphrey in the office with the desk behind him. Anyone know if this desk has any other history? Is it even worth noting in the article? -- Found5dollar ( talk) 22:53, 3 December 2020 (UTC)

a property decal from the Sergeant at Arms of the United States Senate, could you clarify what this means? What does the decal look like, where is it, perhaps?
Nixon was out of the United States, had it refinished.could you contextualize, perhaps when or why Nixon was out of the country?
Im doing some research on the Johnson desk discrepancies and found this picture] from 1965. Johnson is at the LBJ ranch in Texas and that totally looks like the Wilson desk! Right down to the handle shapes and corner carving details. This seems pretty crazy, but thinking about all the stuff he did not out of the question. do we think this is the Wilson desk? Does anyone else have info about him possibly moving the desk to Texas!?-- Found5dollar ( talk) 02:28, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
Ok something even stranger. In this interview with Ladybird from 1963, starting at 27:12 She says about the Wilson desk that "it was used in the capitol for a great many years, then his office force went in together and bought it for him when it was declared surplus available." So are the stores about the desk at Johnson's ranch actually about this desk and not the Johnson desk?-- Found5dollar ( talk) 16:14, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
