Cumberland Gap, National Historical Park Kentucky-Virginia-Tennessee. (Printed verso reads: "Covering an area of over 20,000 acres the beautiful National Park is a shrine to the pioneers who passed through Cumberland Gap. Discovered in 1750 by Dr. Thomas Walker, it was not until 1769 before Kentucky was opened for settlement by Daniel Boone. You can reach the park, which is near Middlesboro, Ky., and Cumberland Gap, Tenn. by U.S. 25-E or U.S. 58.")
