Bob's Place

Horseshoe Lunch Counter 

Ashdown Arkansas  

1910

Robert F Evans conducts a restaurant in Ashdown that is up to date in every way.  The choicest the market affords will be found on sale and this restaurant is familiarly known as Bob's Place.  A "horseshoe" counter is maintained much the same as will be found in many of the quick lunch rooms in the large cities throughout the country. 

Mr Evans has been in business just about a year, and has been very successful.
