History & Age
Covered bridges became one of New England's most recognizable architectural symbols during the 19th century. Their wooden roofs protected structural timbers from weather and greatly extended the life of the bridges. As automobiles replaced horse-drawn transportation, many covered bridges disappeared, but surviving examples became treasured landmarks and popular tourist destinations. Souvenir plates featuring historic covered bridges were commonly sold throughout New England during the mid-to-late 20th century. Designed to commemorate regional history and scenic travel destinations, these plates remain popular with collectors of Americana, covered bridge memorabilia, and vintage travel souvenirs. Estimated age: approximately 1960s–1980s.
