EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this 1913 postcard view of Niagara Falls, USA, featuring the iconic Giant Rock on the Gorge Route. This evocative image transports us to the early 20th century, showcasing the breathtaking natural wonder of Niagara Falls as it was seen over a century ago. The photograph captures the awe-inspiring power and majesty of the falls, with the roaring waters cascading over the edge and creating a mesmerizing mist that shrouds the landscape. The railroad tracks and telegraph pole in the foreground serve as a reminder of the transportation methods that once connected travelers to this breathtaking destination. The Giant Rock, a massive boulder perched precariously on the edge of the gorge, adds an intriguing element to the scene. Its presence not only highlights the raw power of the falls but also the delicate balance between nature and human intervention. This postcard, marked with the date of July 18, 1913, is a testament to the enduring allure of Niagara Falls as a popular tourist destination. The 1910s were a time when travel was becoming more accessible to the masses, and postcards like this one allowed people to share the beauty of far-off places with their friends and family back home. This photograph is a rare glimpse into the past, offering a unique perspective on the history of Niagara Falls and the way we have documented and shared our experiences with one another over the years.
