[Flood Damage in East Waco]

Description: Postcard of a flood and damage on Elm Street in East Waco. The floodwater appears to be knee-high, and houses are upturned and pushed aside, with fences felled, power lines tipping, and debris floating in the water. A carriage pulled by a horse pulls a handful of people eastwards, towards the photographer. Numerous intact buildings are behind the damaged structures, and in the far background, the silhouette of the ALICO building is visible.
