Grand Canyon, Arizona - Near Bridge at Grand View - Postcard, c. 1900s
(3 1/2 x 5 1/2 In) This is an original antique "Phostint" Card, Detroit Publishing Co. postcard from the 1900s. It shows a view of the Grand Canyon in Arizona from near the Bridge at Grand Point.
"The details of structure of the canyon can be seen only at close view, but grand effects of structure can be witnessed in great panoramic scenes. Seen in detail, gorges and precipices appear; seen at a distance, in comprehensive views, vast massive structures are presented. The traveler on the brink looks from afar and is overwhelmed with the sublimity of massive forms; the traveler among the forges stands in the presence of awful mysteries-- profound, solemn and gloomy.", reads the description printed on the back.
The postcard is in VERY GOOD condition, wear at the edges.
