Ruins of Cyclone
The aftermath of a killer tornado, including an arrow and caption that reads: "William Berg Killed Here." In the background near the farmhouse are a group of people and chickens. The farmhouse windows are blown out and shingles have been ripped from the roof. Broken pieces of wood and other debris are strewn around the yard. There is a young child in the foreground and two men stand looking at debris behind a damaged automobile parked on the far left. |
