Scope and Content

This collection consists of a small poster for Books, Strings and Things, a local bookstore that has since closed. The poster has a drawn image of an older gentlemen reading a book with text next to him. The text reads "For the curious at heart, we're simply second nature. Books, Strings & Things. A wall-to-wall gold mine of good reading and good listeing that makes bypassing our store seem like an unnatural thing to do. Because whether you're looking for that ceritan title or you just feel like browsing- we're the perfect place to delight in thousands of books for every age, on any topic. Our huge selection of albums, tapes, and compact discs is unbeatable. And so are our prices! We're proud of what we've brought to out customers in Blacksburg for over 22 years. Soon. we'll also be on the Market in downtown Roanoke. And we promise leaving our stores will never be as easy as entering. BOOKS STRINGS & THINGS INCORPORATED 214 Draper Road Downtown Blacksburg" The condition is good.
