1938 Man at Lover's Leap Georgia

This authentic vintage postcard from 1938 features a dramatic view from Lover’s Leap, a legendary lookout point at Rock City Gardens on Lookout Mountain, Georgia. A lone figure of a man stands at the edge, gazing out over the vast landscape—a moment that captures both the natural beauty and mythic romance of the site.

According to Cherokee legend, Lover’s Leap was named for a tragic love story in which two young lovers from rival tribes leapt to their deaths rather than be separated. Today, it remains one of the most photographed and visited spots in Rock City, famous for its panoramic views where, on a clear day, visitors can see seven states.

Printed on classic linen-textured cardstock, this postcard is a vivid example of 1930s American travel ephemera—perfect for collectors of Southern folklore, scenic landscapes, or vintage postcards.
