Item description

Posted 1918, full bleed lithograph, unknown origin. Corners show wear from mounting corners in the frame from which this was removed. Charming period message on the back. Some transfer from the black construction paper it was mounted on. Estate sale find, just removed from under glass frame for scanning and placed in mylar. Shipping with tracking included. boarded. "The Glens" is now a City Park, shared by Akron and Cuyahoga Falls and lies between the rapids created by the removal of small industrial dams upstream and great bends where the southerly flowing river drops some 200 feet and turns north to Lake Erie. Cut into the rock by pre-historic earthquakes, the area has been the seen of amusement parks and other recreational activity for as long as Europeans have settled the area. The High Glens, as it is now called on the West side forms the natural boundary to the back yards of a number of homes. A trail runs along the river about midway up from the River to the top of the cliffs. The East side is similar, with the Interstate Highway running along the top of the cliff. No doubt the area was also used by the several Native American tribes whose empires spanned the area. The river bed is a source for fossils, and the trails up the banks from this scene are littered with boulders left behind by the retreating glaciers. Legend has it that the shelf caves carved out by natural drainage over the centuries were used by migrating tribes as shelter. The name Cuyahoga means "twisted river"--it is the only river in the world which flows north, south, east and west.
