Description

A black and white image of collapsed wood-frame buildings on the campus of Bethune-Cookman University, after Hurricane "Two" came through Florida in 1930. In the center of the photograph is what remains of the roof of a building. Its walls have fallen down on their sides to the left of the roof. The foundation and the steps that led up to the house are also visible. A small child stands in front of the collapsed building in the lower right of the image. At the left of the image is one remaining wall of another building, in front of which stands three adults and small children. In the background of the image are trees, which, due to wind force, are all slanted toward the right side of the image. The photographer of the image is unknown.
