Summary
West Main fire. Photograph published June 29, 1973, on page 8 of the Waynesboro Record Herald newspaper shows former Bloom Brothers Waynesboro store (center, occupied by Sherman's) and its neighbor being consumed by fire. Both buildings and the Bloom Building at 17 West Main (to immediate right of Sherman's) were purchased by First National Bank of Waynesboro in December 1973 to make room for an annex to the original granite bank building and an adjacent parking lot for dedicated use by bank patrons.

It is a faithful digitization of a unique historical document and therefore qualifies as fair use under US copyright law.
