There's a new Spitefuls: disaster diorama. This one depicts the Great Chicago Fire that burned from Sunday, October 8, to early Tuesday, October 10, 1871, killing hundreds and destroying about four square miles in Chicago, Illinois. It was earlier reported that the fire was started by cow kicking over a lantern in the barn owned by Patrick and Catherine O'Leary. It was later admitted by Chicago Republican reporter Michael Ahern that the cow story was just made up.
