This is an original 1930 black and white halftone print of the Delaware River Bridge from Pensylvania, PA, to Camden, NJ. Paul Philippe Cret, the supervising architect who designed the majestic suspension bridge, designed it to have the longest suspension bridge span in the world at the time. Today, it is more commonly known as the Benjamin Franklin Bridge.
Please note that while the caption refers to the "illustration opposite" of the Hudson Memorial Bridge, this item does not include that illustration.
