Remember That Day, Jefferson Rock, Harpers Ferry, W.Va.


A tattered & torn (or otherwise damaged) photo for the Vintage Photos Theme Park.
Handwritten caption: "Remember that day."
Handwritten note on the back: "Isn't this sweet. Give me one in the place of this."
An undated and well-worn photo taken at Jefferson Rock, which overlooks the town of Harpers Ferry, West Virginia. According to Wikipedia, "The name of this landmark derives from Thomas Jefferson, who stood there on October 25, 1783. He found the view from the rock impressive and wrote in Notes on the State of Virginia that 'this scene is worth a voyage across the Atlantic.'"
Note that the silhouette of someone's head and shoulders is visible in the background between two of the pillars that hold the top slab of the rock in place.
Here's a 2009 view of the rock taken from a similar vantage point:
