A popular travel destination, Cape Girardeau is the economic center of Southeast Missouri and the home of Southeast Missouri State University. Visitors often pause for photos at the Bill Emerson Memorial Bridge—a cable-stayed bridge spanning the Mississippi River between Cape Girardeau, Missouri and East Cape Girardeau, Illinois. A popular landmark and a feat of engineering, the bridge is 4,000 feet long, more than 13 football fields! To celebrate the city and the bridge, Anderson Design Group created this classic design and original illustration and travel art in the style of vintage 20th-Century American travel posters. Enjoy this print as a framed poster, canvas, metal sign, postcard, or note card. To learn more about the rich history of Missouri or to make travel plans, visit the website for Visit Missouri.
