Ice Boating on the Hudson River

As a follow-up to our recent post, Winter on the Hudson River, here’s a postcard showing an ice boat in action on the river, circa 1910.

This image is part of the Waterways Post Card Collection at the Graduate School of Library and Information Studies, Queens College (CUNY), New York—a collection of “historically significant cultural heritage materials documenting the waterways of New York state.”

Here are links to this collection, which is part of a much larger treasure-trove of New York-related documents and images:
