Silver Springs Covered Bridge 1884-1972

About the photo in the Header:

Silver Springs Covered bridge was in Columbia County Pennsylvania. The Fred Yenerall collection has several photos of the bridge before it collapsed. I love the photos of this bridge, it was so long, so pretty, and even though it was pretty beaten up, it still showed up so well in photographs.

Out of all the photos of the Covered bridges - This one is my favorite.
