Seattle WA Lake Washington Floating Bridge White Border Postcard C P Johnston

This vintage postcard features a beautifully illustrated view of the Lake Washington Floating Bridge in Seattle, Washington. The bridge, a significant engineering feat of its time, is depicted as a long floating structure stretching across the expansive lake, with early 20th-century automobiles parked nearby, suggesting the postcard dates from the 1930s or 1940s. The colors are vibrant with a serene sky gradient and lush greenery framing the scene, typical of linen postcards produced during that era.

Published by the well-known C.P. Johnston Co., Seattle, this postcard captures the historic short route to Snoqualmie Pass, a notable route for travelers in the Pacific Northwest. The back of the postcard is divided with space for writing messages and an address, reflecting classic postcard design standards. Collectors will appreciate the geographic and historical significance of this item as well as the quality of the lithographic printing technique used to produce the image.
