Natural Bridge, Virginia, a limestone arch spanning a rocky ravine, with a shallow stream running beneath it and bare-branched trees framing the opening. A small figure on the path at lower right gives a sense of scale. The caption promotes the site as one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World and notes that the Lee Highway passes over the bridge, a reminder of its long life as a roadside attraction. Thomas Jefferson once owned the surrounding land and called the bridge "the most sublime of Nature's works."
No printed text on front; visible halftone screen of a color photo reproduction; slight white margin at edges.
No postmark or cancellation. Divided-back chrome-era card with printed caption and publisher imprint; no handwriting anywhere. Slight edge/corner wear and light toning on the cream borderless back.
