Historical Picture of Golden Gate Bridge Opened in 1937

What a cool pic taken on the first day The Golden Gate Bridge opened. It opened on May 27, 1937, linking Marin to San Francisco. Pedestrians had the bridge to themselves on opening day. The next day, cars started crossing. (Photo provided by the Golden Gate Bridge District) via http://bit.ly/1vdUvgO
