Tacoma Narrows Bridge Collapsing, Washington. Original caption: Tacoma Narrows Bridge, Tacoma, Washington. Looking westerly from south side of bridge, about 11:15am on November 7, 1940, showing 650 to 700 linear feet of deck falling. The broken hanger cables are seen in many positions. The auto shown in photo No. 41-186 is now turned but at the same general location on deck. Eye witnesses standing at tower to right observed that auto did not shift from side to side of deck. The frayed north cable can just be seen over girders at low point of sag. Photograph by Bashford - Thompson, Tacoma, Wash
