Her collection contains eleven photographs, dated 1941-1942, that relate to ASTC and the Town of Boone.  Subjects include Appalachian students, the campus, and a snow storm.  Downtown storefront entrances featured are Dixie Stores and Watauga Hotel and Café.  Downtown storefronts photographed include Farmers Hardware and the bank located next door. There is also a photograph of the Daniel Boone Hotel directional sign.
