Title	View of American falls, Niagara Falls, N.Y.
Description	Niagara Falls, with a large building in the background and a boat on the water in the foreground. Text printed on verso reads, "View of Niagara Falls, Niagara Falls, New York. Niagara Falls is located in Niagara River which flows from Lake Erie northward into Lake Ontario. It is about 36 miles in length and its descent from the level of the one lake to that of the other is about 334 feet. On issuing from Lake Erie, it is three-quarters of a mile broad, but as it flows on it becomes several miles wide, making room for a number of islands. A small tower, approached from Goat Island, has been built on a rock over the brow of the Horseshoe Fall; and from this the finest view on the American side may be obtained." Number 53 in a series. Postage requirements date this card to before 1952.
