Canvas camp stool
notes: label: Description
content: The relocation centers' living quarters were not much more than a bare shack. In order to raise their quality of living, many internees built their own furniture. Proper materials for construction were hard to come by. Instead, imprisoned people used whatever salvaged or scrap material they could find. The unfinished wood of the folding stool is evidence of having been made in camp as opposed to having been bought.
