Description
Photograph of the Colorado River Bridge in Yuma, Arizona, ca.1935. A car can be seen at the far end of the bridge driving towards the foreground of the photograph. The pavement of the bridge itself is covered in fine gravel and powder and is flanked on either side by what appear to be sidewalks made of wooden planks. The silhouette of what appears to be a house can be seen on the hill above and behind the bridge.
