Sobre este artículo
Four 4.25x6.5" sepia toned cabinet card photos by E.B. Snell Elite Gallery, Wellington KS. One 5.25x8.5" by H. Beck Winfield Kansas, with two inked annotations identifying destroyed properties.
On May 27, 1892, a cyclone ripped through the heart of Wellington Kansas, leaving 17 dead, numerous injuries, leaving hundreds homeless, and causing $500,000 in property damage. At that time, Wellington was one of the state's fastest growing cities, with a population of 12,000. The cyclone caused extensive damage to a 26-block area and ended the momentum of growth the city had been experiencing. Photographer E.B. Snellhad a studio in the city and captured the aftermath.
Condition: Good. Margins and backs discolored, but not affecting the images. The larger card is somewhat faded.
