Scope and content
Photograph, taken from a high vantage, showing burned buildings and debris in the main business district of Bandon, Oregon, after the town was destroyed by wildfire on Saturday, September 26, 1936. A cropped version of this photograph was one of seven that were published in a spread on Page 13 of the Oregon Journal on Tuesday, September 29, 1936. The photographs were published under the headline “Photographs Vividly Portray Horror of Holocaust Which Completely Destroyed Beautiful Bandon-by-the-Sea.” This photograph had the following caption: “General view of the main business district from the top of the hill on which formerly stood the coast guard residence and headquarters. These few remaining concrete walls are today being blasted down, in the interest of safety, before the ruins are inspected.” Also see image Nos. 372A0724, 372A0725, and 372A0727, which were published on the same page as this photograph, and image No. 372A0722, which was published on the front page the same day.
