Description

Airplane view of the docks, the surrounding area, and the St. Johns River, Jacksonville, Florida.

Printed on the back: Jacksonville's land-locked harbor, twenty-two miles from the open Atlantic, on the mighty St. Johns River, shelters the leading port of the South Atlantic. Two bridges span the river, the F.E.C. R.R. Bridge and the St. John's River Bridge, over which passes most of the automobile traffic into the state. The sand at Jacksonville and Atlantic Beaches is white and hard, delightful surf-bathing practically all year.

In addition, there's a note written to Mrs. A.[I]. Page, Fort Worth, Texas, that reads: Arrived here 7:00 and on time. Will leave at 9:45 am and should arrive West Palm Beach 5:08 this afternoon. Love Daddy. 5/30/32
