1, there is shown, in perspective view, a preferred embodiment of the audio video display booth 10 of the present invention.
A decorative peripheral upper panel 12 and a similar, decorative peripheral bottom panel 14 are supplied with illuminating elements 16.
An entry is formed in the side of the booth 10 that is defined by a sliding door panel 16 which, when opened, is retained in a pocket of a central peripheral wall panel 18.
A transparent plastic wall portion 20 is placed between the upper panel 12 and the central panel 18 and a second transparent wall portion 22 is placed between the central panel 20 and the bottom panel 14.
On the wall panel 18 adjacent the door panel 16 is placed a graphic display 24 which can include an attractive presentation of the subjects that are available for viewing.
The transparent upper wall portion 20 and lower wall portion 22 provide some sound isolation from the surrounding environment while permitting some exterior illumination.

With reference now to FIGS.
