EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken around 1907, showcases the Jackknife Bridge in Chicago, Illinois, USA. The bridge, an engineering marvel of the time, was a railroad bridge that spanned the Chicago River and was renowned for its unique design. The bridge's name originated from its ability to fold or "jackknife" in order to allow larger vessels to pass underneath. The image, captured using a dry plate glass negative with dimensions of 8 x 10 inches, was produced by an unknown photographer, likely employed by the Detroit Publishing Company. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the industrial landscape of early 20th century America. The Jackknife Bridge is seen here in its closed position, with railroad cars neatly arranged in the compartments, ready to be transported across the river. The bridge's intricate structure, with its trusses and cables, is evident in the photograph, showcasing the engineering prowess of the era. This photograph is a valuable historical artifact, providing insight into the transportation infrastructure of the United States during the early 1900s. It is a reminder of the past, a testament to the ingenuity and innovation that shaped the country's industrial landscape. The Jackknife Bridge, a symbol of progress and engineering excellence, stands proudly in this photograph, a testament to the rich history of Chicago and the United States.
