Scene of a Wrecked Police Car

The rejection letter*, written on July 8, 1949 from the Seattle Post Intelligencer's Editorial Secretary, reads:

Dear Mrs. P----.

We are returning the photos you submitted to us for our perusal however on the account they were received so long after the accident occurred we are unable to use them. Many thanks for sending the to us, anyway. Sincerely, Miss ---------



*authentic letter and photos, most likely taken in Whatcom County Washington. I smeared out the names on the extremely unlikely off-chance that these people are still living.
