Description
Photograph of Ninth Street Bridge showing cracks, showing cars on the bridge, [s.d.]. In the foreground at right, the railing of the bridge can be seen. The stone casing on the top of the railing is noticeably cracked. A section of the casing near a small column of the railing is nearly removed from the rest of the railing. In the background, small lampposts are visible along the railing of bridge. To the left, the wide bridge is visible extending into the extreme background. In the background, several automobiles can be seen moving along the bridge. To the far right of the bridge, a wired fence separates an area containing piles of wood and scrap metal. Large buildings can be seen in the extreme background at right. Back of photoprint reads "Received Examiner Reference Library. Aug 13, 1936".
