This dramatic mid-century view looks deep into the layered rock walls of "The Cliffs" within Watkins Glen State Park. The back of the card describes visiting the Glen as an "experience of a lifetime," noting its 1863 founding by M. Ells, a local newspaper man. As one of the oldest public parks in the United States, this site remains a premier destination in the Finger Lakes region, famous for its winding stone pathways and towering shale formations carved over millennia.
