Description
This was contained in a sleeve labeled, "ASTC Band Formations Home Coming/Half time, 10-22-55." This picture shows the Appalachian State Teachers College marching band on the football field during a 1955 halftime show. This event was a gathering of current and alumni band members to celebrate homecoming. The band is in several formations around the field and surrounding the sides. The band has different uniforms for each formation. The picture focuses on a large triangle formation with a group inside. There are a few circles of color guards and majorettes around the field as well. There is a large crowd on and around the bleachers. The field is surrounded by a chain fence with barbed wire. Several campus buildings are visible as well. Howard's Knob can be seen on the left side of the picture.
