The Ben Williamson Memorial Bridge spans the Ohio River at Ashland, Kentucky, a cantilever truss crossing with wooded hills behind it and railroad freight cars visible in the foreground. Completed in the early 1930s, it linked main U.S. highways between Kentucky and Ohio. The caption calls Ashland an industrial city, a fitting label for a river town tied to steel, oil refining, and rail traffic.
Linen texture; white border; printed number 22 at end of caption.
No postmark. Divided back; cream stock with light foxing; printed 'Natural Color Post Card' by E.C. Kropp for Tri-State News Agency.
