PANORAMA PHOTO, BOWLING GREEN Business University Students & Staff KENTUCKY 1924

Description

Sepia-tone panorama photograph measuring just under 40 in. by 8 in., white margins included.
Its current resting position is on a tight roll, and that’s how it will be mailed.
Created by Franklin’s Studio, March 1, 1924.
This is an excerpt from Western Kentucky University’s website which helps to explain a couple of the signs / banners in the image and more – “… the two debating societies of the Bowling Green Business University, named Big Four and Coreco. This school was located near downtown Bowling Green… Some students of the Western Kentucky State Normal School moved on to Bowling Green Business University to augment their studies. This could bring a student to be involved in competitive debate at both the Normal School and at BGBU.”
Condition
- 1-inch vertical-ish crease in bottom edge below the RH side of the “Big 4” banner; noticeable soil here and there on the front, primarily near the LR corner; heavier soil/yellowing on the back – heaviest near the ends, presumably from those parts having been exposed over different time periods, depending on which way the photo had been rolled up.
