Bookstore, first, snack bar, photo 11

This image shows the snack bar full of students in the College Bookstore, built 1934, at Appalachian State Teachers College (1929-1967). Students can be seen at tables with books, coffee cups, straws, and ash trays. The snack bar can be seen on the left. The College Bookstore was housed in a brick building at the corner of Locust St. and College Ave., where the current University Bookstore is located. In addition to renting and selling textbooks, it also provided Appalachian State merchandise, supplies, and refreshments, while the second floor provided space for three apartments. A snack bar was added in 1955. In 1967, the building was demolished to make way for a new, larger University Bookstore, completed in 1969.
