About This Design

Burnside's Bridge, Antietam Creek, Sharpsburg, MD Magnet

Burnside's Bridge, Antietam Creek, Sharpsburg, MD Magnet

Burnside's Bridge is a landmark on the Antietam National Battlefield near Sharpsburg, Maryland. Crossing over Antietam Creek, the bridge played a key role in the September 1862 Battle of Antietam during the American Civil War when a small number of Confederate soldiers from Georgia for several hours held off repeated attempts by elements of the Union Army to take the bridge by force. Finally, the Federals seized it, but not before the attack had been delayed for several hours beyond what had been expected by Maj. Gen. Ambrose Burnside. The bridge now bears Burnside's name. Constructed in 1836 of area limestone and granite by local Dunker farmers, the three-arched, 12-foot (3.7 m)-wide, 125-foot (38 m)-long bridge provided a passageway over Antietam Creek for farmers to take their produce and livestock to market in Sharpsburg. It was originally named the Lower Bridge, as there were two others (Upper Bridge and Middle Bridge) upstream that also allowed movement of freight, animals, and people across the creek. The Lower Bridge took on the name Rohrbach's Bridge after a farmer, Henry Rohrbach, who lived near the structure. Original photo by Scenes from the Past, April 24, 2010.

Friendly and helpful with my design issues on original order. Shipping was prompt as promised. Excellent workmanship. Product was actually better than I expected. I will be ordering aging in the near future. Picture was exactly as I wanted. Colours were perfect.

Instead of sending a Christmas card, our family creates a fridge magnet with Zazzle, and sends these to friends and family. These fun items live on the fridge for many years, and long outlast the poor Christmas card which ends up in the recycling with the wrapping paper on Boxing Day. The colours are vibrant, printing is clear. There are plenty of fonts and colours to choose from to create a personalized item.
