It is a 16 page
pictorial history of the construction of this engineering marvel from start
to finish
with only a ferw lines fo text but the photos tell it all. I wasn't even
aware the book existed. What a nice present!!! Also included were a color
postcard
showing the viaduct from the air and a newpaper article from thr Scranton
Times dated Novemeber 6, 1915, the day the bridge was formally opened.

I've seen it advertised for sale before. Does it state that it's a reprint
or remake of an original that was produced when the bridge first opened?
Needless to say most of the photos are from the glass plate collection at Syracuse
I would imagine.
Its a lucky man that has Santa come early, & on time too. :)
