The chess table was built by Carter and later sold at a Carter Center Auction in 2013.

President Carter responds to the letter with the correct dimensions, and a note to the author: "To Frederick - Thanks - I'll keep your offer in mind - Best Wishes, Jimmy." This lot includes the full magazine, the letter sent to President Carter, the return envelope and the annotated drawings of the chess table. Seller Inventory # 11251
