Hampton Beach NH New Hampshire One Mile Long Wooden Bridge 1913 Divided Postcard

This vintage postcard features a stunning view of the one mile long wooden bridge at Hampton Beach, New Hampshire, once known as the longest wooden bridge in the world. The image captures the bridge stretching into the distance alongside pristine coastal sands and water, with telephone poles lining the route, evoking an early 20th-century seaside atmosphere. The postcard showcases a delicate hand-tinted colorization typical of the era, enhancing its nostalgic charm.

Produced by the Frank W. Swallow Post Card Co. of Exeter, NH, this postcard dates back to 1913, as confirmed by the clear Portsmouth postmark. The back bears a handwritten message and a 1-cent green U.S. postage stamp featuring George Washington. Its standard size of approximately 5.5 x 3.5 inches makes it a classic collectible. This piece is a wonderful addition for collectors interested in early American postcards, historic bridges, or New England landmarks.
