First Riot Picture
Caption: Here is the first picture of the riot. it shows the first appliance of the torch to the negro section. <br /><br /> This appeared on page 9 of the 1921 June 1 <strong>Tulsa Tribune</strong>, although I'm not sure which edition. The City edition, which was the one microfilmed has replaced this with a cartoon <span style="text-decoration:underline;">Doings of the Duffs</span>, "How was a man to know?"<br /><br /> Although the picture is unclear, due to the reproduction process, it should be possible to match the shadows and shapes to determine the actual image, should it still exist elsewhere.
