Notes
Newspaper clip on back of photoprint reads: "This Was Once a Dance Pavilion, one of the main attractions at Eldorado Springs, Colo. In the wall of water that surged down South Boulder creek Friday night it was reduced to nothing more than a messy heap of lumber and debris. This was what remained of it Saturday morning. Part of the building floated downstream and pieces were found more that four miles away. Supports beneath the floor were undermined and the roof caved in. The building had been evacuated only a short time before it collapsed."; Stamped on back of photoprint: "SEP 4 1938."; Title hand-written on back of photoprint.; R7100081544
