Antique Real Photo Postcard, circa 1931. Identified as the Waldo-Hancock Bridge in Bucksport, Maine. The ship passing beneath the bridge has been identified in other photos simply as the "Boston Steamer." Divided back, Defender stampbox, unused. Condition: This is an original photo postcard, not a copy or reproduction. It is in excellent condition. Comments: The WaldoHancock Bridge was the first long-span suspension bridge erected in Maine, as well as the first permanent bridge across the Penobscot River below Bangor. The name comes from connecting Waldo and Hancock counties. The bridge was built in 1931 and retired in 2006, when the new Penobscot Narrows Bridge was opened just a few yards away, and it was demolished in 2013.
