Antique RPPC Postcard Mitchell Tunnel Columbia River Highway OR 1910s

This Real Photo Postcard captures the engineering marvel of the Mitchell Tunnel as it carves through the rugged cliffs along the Columbia River Highway. The image showcases the early days of Pacific Northwest motoring, highlighting the dramatic rock-hewn archway and the winding road that defined this scenic route during the 1910s.

Collectors of Oregon history and early automotive infrastructure will value this RPPC for its authentic depiction of the Columbia River gorge before modern expansions. It serves as a stark, monochromatic window into the 1910s era of travel, preserving the rustic atmosphere of this famous highway landmark.

A quintessential piece of antique transit history from the Mitchell Tunnel.
