A man stands in the mud and debris near Alameda and Olive after a storm as a car drives by. Sanford's Grocery at 3115 W Olive Ave and a gas station are visible. Notes on this photo and another from the same shoot alternately give the year as 1938 and 1947. "Flood damage. Alameda Ave. Burbank where it crosses Olive Ave. 1938"; "File: Storm Drains"; and "Return to Engineering Dept."--back of photo.
