The Varsity, No. 03

By: Todd Suttles

The Varsity, Number Three

It is Way Back When Wednesday again. Last week I posted Varsity Number One. Today's post is number three of three. (see December 28)

The Varsity is an Atlanta institution for anyone who lived in Atlanta in the mid-1900s. It is still popular for all of the items mentioned above in the illustration's menu. The best "grilled steak"  in the world was only 35 cents back then (Krystals were only 5 cents).

A view of The Varsity in Atlanta, reproduced from Bill Suttles’ original commercial illustration, created circa 1955–1960 and published in Atlanta Magazine. For generations of Georgia Tech students and alumni, The Varsity has been a gathering place tied to college friendships and memories.
