"Bern, view of the city and Alps, Switzerland. Bern is the capital of the Canton of the same name being on a lofty sandstone promontory, more than 1700 feet above the sea formed by the winding Aar, which surrounds it on three sides, and is crossed by two stone bridges, one of which is a magnificent structure upward of 900 feet long, with a central arch 150 feet wide and 93 feet high. Bern has an imposing appearance from a distance. The houses are massive structures of freestones, resting upon arcades. The corporate property of the city is very large, sufficient to defray all municipal expenses; provide the whole of its citizens with fuel gratis, and besides leaving a surplus for annual distribution among them."
Whew, that is one long postcard narrative.
I am guessing this dates between 1910-1914
