1953 Unusual photograph of a group of spectators viewing the atomic bomb blast in Yucca Flat, Nevada. Situated just seven miles from the detonation (seems close) the image is completely illuminated by the blast itself and the as such is a work of photographic art. Taken by photographer Bob Grosh of the International News and stamped on the back with a full paper caption, this is a high grade specimen that we have never seen before.
