Description

Continental-sized (approx. 4x6) chrome postcard with a view of
the Lakes of Killarney,
taken from the Ladies' View overlook, with brilliant pink flowers in the scene.
Photo by E. Nägele.
Back caption reads,
"LADIES' VIEW, KILLARNEY: The three Lakes of Killarney lie in a broad mountain
enclosed vale on the northern side of the Kerry highland region. The magnificent road
from Kenmare to Killarney provides one of the finest 'surprise' views of the lakes. In the
wild valley beneath Derrycunnihy mountain, the Upper Lake, mottled with islets, peters out
into the twisted ribbon of the Long Range. Above the Long Range rises the wooded crag
of the Eagle's Nest, where it is said nested the last eagles of the Killarney district."
