The picture shows a tall white soldiers' monument topped by a statue, set in a grassy park with an American flag, cannons, and a flower bed; the printed caption names it Soldiers' Monument and Park, Rochester, Pa. Rochester is a borough in Beaver County, Pennsylvania, along the Ohio River. The card's linen texture and white border place it in the mid-20th century.
