Blackwing Volume 746 Memo Book – Set of 3 - The Golden Gate Bridge
Each A6 (10.5 cm x 14.8 cm) memo book includes 48 pages of Ruled paper and features the bridge’s silhouette printed on its cover in the iconic International Orange. The Blackwing 746 is a tribute to the Golden Gate Bridge and other engineering wonders of the modern world.
The Story
In the summer of 1929, the newly-formed Golden Gate Bridge and Highway District hired Joseph B. Strauss to complete a task that many said was impossible: build a bridge across the churning waters of the Golden Gate Strait. He and his team of engineers, designers, and planners used pencil and paper to develop the sketches, design drafts, and finished plans that would become the Golden Gate Bridge.
When the Golden Gate Bridge opened on May 27, 1937, it was the longest suspension bridge in the world. It measured 1.7 miles long, with a 4,200-foot main span and two 746-foot towers supporting the structure at either end. The innovative engineering techniques used to build the bridge have allowed it to withstand hurricane-force winds, raging ocean currents, and the rumblings of the nearby San Andreas Fault.
