Throwback Thursday: Union College Bookstore

Grab a new book this #ThrowbackThursday!

This week’s highlight is six black and white photographs of a bookstore in Union College. Textbooks fill the shelves along a wall, while other school supplies are displayed in a glass cabinet in front of the bookshelves, in this 5-1/2″ x 3-1/4″ black and white photograph. A box on top of the glass cabinet reads: “Sanford’s Blue Black Fountain Pen Ink, The Most Satisfactory”.

This image is owned and published by the Union College, Ella Johnson Crandall Memorial Library. The library at Union College is home to an archival collection of books, periodicals, audiovisual materials, photographs, artifacts, and manuscript collections related to the history of Union College and the College View community. 

See this collection and many more on the Nebraska Memories archive!

The Nebraska Memories archive is brought to you by the Nebraska Library Commission. If your institution is interested in participating in Nebraska Memories, see http://nlc.nebraska.gov/nebraskamemories/participation.aspx for more information.
