The Card shows: Colored lithograph of photographic view of the aqueduct looking north from a vantage point below the mill dam almost at water level. The river fills the foreground of the view, and trees fill the view through the arch, with perhaps a footbridge just visible in the distance. The stonework of the aqueduct has been tinted a bluish color. (A divided-back variation of the same card shows it as pinkish.) The caption on this variation sets "Echo Bridge, Newton, Mass." as a unit centered under the picture. The card was apparently manufactured by ANC -- the company's Poly-Chrome trademark and cloverleaf logotype appears in the upper left corner of the back. The complete publisher's credit runs vertically up the left side of the card back: "Published by The New England News Company, Boston Mass., Leipzig, Dresden. The card back is clean except for a penciled "X X X" over the logo, and "Echo Bridge Folder." Postcard type: Undivided Back Estimated Date of Publication: 1907 or before |
