This is a 1908 era unused postcard of the Wonderland amusement area at Revere Beach in Massachusetts. Wonderland did not burn down, this was a building that they repeatedly burned as part of a beach side spectacle to attract tourists. The spectacle was titled "Fighting the Flames." Revere Beach was Massachusetts' version of Coney Island at the time. On another website I saw a postcard that showed an active volcano the size of a building, another tourist attraction spectacle at Wonderland.

On the internet you can find copies of a similar postcard by James T Allen & Co. This postcard is different and was made by Robinson Bros. Co (Boston and Germany) and seems to be rarer. It has some wear along the edges and a small crease in one corner, but is undamaged and has no writing.
