The Card shows:
A colored lithograph of a photographic view of the walkway across the top of the aqueduct, from a viewpoint just beyond the western end of the arch. The stairways and platform dominate the foreground, with a large barrel, presumably a trash barrel, in the left foreground. A woman and young girl are walking on the arch, facing away from the camera in the middle distance. They appear out of scale with the rest of the view and may have been retouched into the picture. The houses and a steeple of the village of Upper Falls are visible at the far end of the span.
The card is marked "Copyright 1905 by the Rotograph Co." above the caption.
The back of the card is clean except for the Jackson Homestead stamp. The condition of the card is fair. The edges and corners are sharp, but paper has been pulled from a small area in the central part of the view, as if the card had stuck to another.
