Description

The fourth of July, 1943, was quiet in Los Gatos, during war time. But the next morning brought the biggest conflagration the town had seen since the great fire of 1901. Two buildings were leveled, including the original Palmer Perkins Stoves and Tinware building, which had escaped the 1891 fire, but burned to the ground in 1943. DIS027
