Damage to a carnival or fair from a storm. Photograph includes handwriting in the upper right-hand corner.

A circus or fair scene with multiple collapsed or damaged structures, possibly after some kind of storm. Handwriting at the top right of the photograph points to one of the few structures still standing and appears to be indicating what attraction it was, though some words are difficult to make out.
