Group portrait of Narrows Bridge construction workers, with hats raised in salute, in front of Toll Gate, with span in background. The new suspension bridge, later dubbed "Galloping Gertie," was opened for business on July 1, 1940 and these men, who probably had a great part in its construction, were there to celebrate.
