Fig 10-1 Daniel Weber, who took this photo said, "This picture of Kamm's
Corners, looking southwest was taken on November 25, 1950. I went up to Kamm's
to see if traffic was snarled. The bus on the left made a left turn to go
south on Rocky River Drive just after I took the picture and promptly became stuck in the snow."
