Tornado Damage, South Otselic, New York, June 12, 1911

Tornado Damage, South Otselic, New York, June 12, 1911
A photo for the Vintage Photos Theme Park topic of disasters (fires, earthquakes, floods, etc).

Caption on this real photo postcard: "Cyclone, June 12, 1911. S. Otselic, N.Y."

Damage to trees from a cyclone (tornado) that hit South Otselic, New York, on June 12, 1911. For another photo taken the same day, see Cyclone Damage on Barn, an image from the collection of the Farmers' Museum, Cooperstown, New York.

Fred Fouarge, Smiley Derleth have particularly liked this photo

I would imagine that damaging tornadoes were fairly rare in New York at that time. I wonder how many postcards of this image were sold in South Otselic.
