Description
Photograph of Department of Public Works employees burning the branches from a felled tree, [s.d.]. To the right of center, four men attend the ashes and smoke resulting from a pile of burning branches, the rightmost man holding a rake in the air. In front of them, a street sign shows the intersection of Shell Avenue and Rialto Court, along with the 1600 and 700 blocks, respectively. In the background, a one-story house can be seen. To the left, a truck is visible. A slim fire hydrant can also be seen along the sidewalk next to the street sign.
