This vintage postcard captures the dramatic scene of Celilo Falls, Oregon, featuring Native Americans fishing at this iconic natural landmark. The image, credited to photographer Morton Luman, showcases traditional fishing platforms built over the powerful falls, set against a backdrop of rugged cliffs and the Columbia River. This scene is historically significant as it documents a way of life that ceased after the construction of The Dalles Dam, which flooded the area.Printed using the vibrant Photochrome process, this postcard brings out vivid colors and fine details, typical of mid-20th century postcards. Produced by Smith Western Inc., Portland, Oregon, this continental-sized (6 x 4 inches) card offers collectors a glimpse into a vanished cultural and environmental landscape. The scalloped edges add to its classic appeal, making it a sought-after piece for enthusiasts of Native American history, natural landmarks, and vintage postcards alike.
