Fire Rages At Old Shenango China Plant

[The Seeker]

I'm a good 10 miles away from this, but I saw the billows of thick black smoke and knew there was a HUGE fire somewhere.

Although this company had closed, it's still a shame that the place burned.....it was quite a historic place in that for nearly 100 years they were the company that made the official china, custom designed, for each incoming President to be used at the White House.

That's really sad - hate it when a bit of history and tradition is destroyed. Do you think anyone will restore it?

I agree, it's always a shame when piece of history is destroyed.

I hate to see history lost to fire, flood, or storm damage damage.
