Red aircraft-warning lights blaze along every cable and tower while searchlight beams slash the night sky above the East Bay hills — artist E. A. Burbank's spectacular nighttime rendering of the San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge transforms engineering into pure spectacle, the double-deck span's four towers reflected in inky waters as ferries and cargo vessels pass beneath, with the glittering lights of Oakland, Berkeley, and Alameda smeared across the far shore in a tableau that feels equal parts civic triumph and Hollywood fantasy. The Bay Bridge, opened November 12, 1936 — just months before this card's 1937 publication date — was at the time the world's longest steel high-level bridge and the costliest public works project in California history at $79.5 million; the back copy dutifully records its vital statistics: 8¼ miles long, six upper auto lanes, three lower truck lanes plus two interurban rail tracks, 2,320-foot main suspension spans with 185-foot vertical clearance, noting that "the night lighting makes it almost as brilliant as day." Artist credit to E. A. Burbank appears on the left edge, and the card bears the Stanley A. Piltz Company copyright. An unused example in excellent linen condition — one of the most visually arresting Bay Area transportation cards of the era.
