The Horseshoe (Canadian) Falls at Niagara thunders over its curving crest, sending up a dense cloud of spray, while a small excursion steamer — the kind used by the Maid of the Mist — works the churning basin below. The card's own caption names the falls simply "Horseshoe Falls." The Maid of the Mist has carried sightseers into the spray beneath Niagara's falls since the mid-19th century, and the boat's presence here gives a sense of the scale of the 170-foot cascade.
Monochrome photographic print with a white border; scattered foxing/staining in the sky area and light wear at the corners.
