From Gene Maddaus:
The worst fire in Palos Verdes history was on June 12, 1973. From a story by Dennis Lim on the 30-year anniversary in 2003:
That fire was started by two boys playing with fireworks.

Memories of the great brush fire of 1973 still burn in the minds of anybody who was around when the disaster swept across the Palos Verdes Peninsula.
The blaze caused millions of dollars worth of damage, consumed nearly 900 acres, damaged 23 homes and destroyed 10 in this normally tranquil area.
