Haynes, a photographer renowned for documenting the scenic wonders of the American West. The stamp box and the instruction on the reverse regarding the \"One-Cent Stamp\" for written messages confirm this card dates to the early Golden Age of postcards, specifically between 1907 and 1915. The falls were renamed to honor Helen Hunt Jackson after her death in 1885; she was so moved by the canyon's beauty that she was originally buried nearby before being moved to Evergreen Cemetery. The bridge shown in the foreground was a popular spot for tourist photography during the early 1900s, allowing visitors to experience the mist of the falls up close.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis postcard would look great framed or make an excellent addition to any collection.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLove it ♡\u003cbr\u003eGet it ☆\u003cbr\u003eGet Lucky 💋 Vintage\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Get Lucky Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46760717844669,"sku":"3342","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0625\/4818\/1181\/files\/3342.jpg?v=1778429714","url":"https:\/\/www.getluckyvintage.com\/products\/3342","provider":"Get Lucky Vintage ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
