Description:
Sepia toned photograph overturned vehicle and fire truck at AJ rock dump.
Sepia toned photo shows seven men surrounding an overturned vehicle. A fire truck can be seen behind the overturned vehicle. The driver side door to the fire truck is open and a fireman appears to be retrieving something from the vehicle. A hose can be seen running from the top of the fire truck to the proper right of the photo. Six of the men surrounding the overturned vehicle are to the proper right of the photo with one man to the proper left of the photo. A stretcher on wheels can be seen on the ground between the overturned vehicle and the fire truck.

As a result of the double—sided tape on the back of the photograph, two horizontal stripes across the photo are a lighter color than the rest of the photo.

Labeled "RESCUE / Summer of 1971 / AJ rock fill (minor injuries!)" on original plastic protector envelope.
