Early days in Pierce County, on the western edge of Wisconsin, are recalled through colorful tales, historic data, and individual biographies in this New 19-page 8 1/2" x 11" spiral-bound booklet, printed single-sided. The front cover is a parchtex card stock, protected with a vinyl sheet. The information comes from a rare 1881 book, entitled History of Northern Wisconsin. We've enlarged the area on a map from the original book, and included it along with two other maps of historic interest. Communities currently listed for this area by the National Association of Counties include: Bay City, Beldenville, Clifton, Diamond Bluff, East Ellsworth, El Paso, Ellsworth (County Seat), Elmwood, Gilman, Hager City, Hartland, Isabelle, Maiden Rock, Martell, Oak Grove, Plum City, Prescott, River Falls, Rock Elm, Salem, Spring Lake, Spring Valley (part), Trenton, Trimbelle, Union.

    No Binding. Condition: Collectible-Fine. Original black-and-white photo postcard. 5 1/2" x 3 1/2." Title printed at the bottom of the image. Imprint of "R. E. P. 1941" in lower-right corner of image. "Genuine Photography Copyright R. E. Peabody, 1941" and "Pub. for N. H. Aerial Tramway Comm., Franconia Notch, N. H." printed on the back. A brief inscription in blue pen is on the back dated August 8, 1946. Postcard is unused. Postcard is virtually pristine and intact. A Fine copy. This postcard shows one of the trams on the Cannon Mountain Aerial Tramway in New Hampshire as it carries passengers. A crowd of people watch the tram. Back caption: "The 27-passenger tram car enters the Valley Station completing the mile long trip from the summit of Cannon Mountain in less than seven minutes." The Cannon Mountain Aerial Tramway was the first aerial tramway built in the United States. The concept of the tramway came from Alexander Bright, an Olympic skier. In 1933, Bright made a trip to Europe as a member of the U.S. Olympic Ski Team. On his trip, he was inspired by the European tramways and thought the idea could gain traction in the U.S. That same year, surveys were completed of Franconia Notch in New Hampshire by L. R. Batemen, E. J. Lloyd, and Roland E. Peabody. Roland E. Peabody (1896-1950) is also named as the photographer on this postcard, and he became the managing director of the tramway. Cannon Mountain was deemed to be the best place to build a tramway because the least amount of forest would have to be cleared on that route. The Cannon Mountain Aerial Tramway was completed in 1938 and remained open until 1980 when another renovated tramway was completed that year.
