Beautiful Kentucky Lake
"TVA's Kentucky Dam and Lake-Kentucky Dam, in Tennessee River about 20 miles from Paducah, Kentucky, was built at a cost of $114,000,000. The dam creates Kentucky Lake which is 184 miles long and has a shore line of 2,200 miles. Construction of Kentucky Dam was begun in 1938 and completed in 1944.
Someone wrote their friend about a fishing trip in 1950 on this postcard.
