Golden Gate Bridge Spanning San Francisco's "Golden Gate"


"Traffic lanes, six of them and two ten foot sidewalks accommodate the travel across the Golden Gate Bridge. This structure is 8940 feet long with towers 746 feet high and a clearance above the waterline of 220 feet. The main span is 4200 feet in length, which is the largest in the world. Total coast to construct $35,000,000.00"

The back also reveals that this card went through the mail in 1947 with a one cent stamp! The sender walked the length of the bridge before sunset.
