Palmer Fire Department

Fire Dept. Collection

December 8, 1960

This near middle ground view of the back side and west end of the main building shows it clearly on fire with the roof of the east half collapsed and firemen standing on ladders and on the porch roof hosing water on the structure. Flames are visible at the peak of the roof. A government surplus tank truck, with "Palmer Fire Dept." painted on the bumper, is parked next to the building furnishing water to the hoses. Several other people stand at left watching the activity. Two late model cars stand in foreground.
