1952 Press Photo Aerial View of South Pass & Jetty on Mississippi River

First jetties to be constructed were those at the mouth of South Pass of the Mississippi River. Without jetties, wave and current action would quickly shoal the entrance to the river which makes New Orleans the second ranking port in the nation. Original jetties at this pass were constructed by the famous James B. Eads.

Photo is dated 1952.

Photo measures 10 x 8.25 inches.
