About This Design

Power House Covered Bridge, Vermont Postcard

Power House Covered Bridge, Vermont Postcard

Power House Covered Bridge, Vermont Postcard "Power House Covered Bridge" by Catherine Sherman. The Power House Covered Bridge is shown here situated among bright Autumn foliage. Also known as the School Street Covered Bridge, the bridge, built in 1872, crosses the Gihon River off State Route 100C in Johnson, Vermont. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974. The bridge's name is from a now obsolete hydroelectric generating station just upstream from it, but electrical wires still run near the bridge. The builder of this bridge of Queen post truss design is unknown. In 1960, minor repairs were conducted to the abutments, approaches and floor. In 1995, it was recommended to reinforce the deck due to the large number of trucks using the road as a short cut. Steel I beams were installed underneath. In 2000, the bridge was destroyed by a heavy snow load. The roof collapsed and the side walls fell outward into the river below. Because of the installation of the steel I beams, the deck was self-supporting and actually survived. Guardrails were put up on the sides of the deck to keep the bridge open while its fate was decided. In 2002, the bridge was reconstructed and reopened on June 29, 2002. Trucks are no longer allowed on this one-lane bridge, one of the many charming one-lane bridges in New England.

Exactly what I wanted, it is very difficult to acquire Vintage Australiana items. I am so please that I ordered 8 I will be using them for my scrap booking and Junk Journaling. Gorgeous, Zazzle produced and delivered exactly what I wanted.

Way better quality than I ever expected. I love the colours, font and quality of the card. I'm so pleased I found Zazzle as it is near impossible to purchase Vintage or Retro Australian memorabilia online. I chose this design when I purchased them. They are perfect for my projects. I was very specific about what I wanted. I know where to come now when I need to order similar items.

Perfect for the occasion I was using it for. I was able to delete the lines so I could put in more wording. Had an envelope so the address side wasn't necessary. Print quality and paper quality lovely.
