Columbia River Gorge circa 1908
Author: coosbaytoday

Front and back of a postcard my great Aunt Calpernnia (Perrnie) sent to her brother, my mom's dad. My Grandfather (Everett) was born in 1896, so he would have been about 12 at this time. If my math is correct.
Postmarked Nov 1, 1908.

Very cool Todd.. It is not often that you get to see a color picture postcard of the SP&S's Cape Horn Tunnel..

Here's another 100-year-old Espee Postcard, this one of Gold Ray Dam on the Siskiyou Line. The dam will most likely be removed sometime this year.
