Original 1947 AP Wirephoto showing the aftermath of a deadly building collapse in Pittsburgh. According to the original caption, part of the roof of a motor sales company building collapsed, killing three men who were trapped beneath rubble while working in the lot. A crushed automobile is visible under the fallen structure, while a fireman works to pry loose masonry hanging over the wreckage. The separate original caption and photograph are both mounted on the same piece of black archival paper. Overall size measures approximately 6¾ x 7¼ inches. Shows tape, age, handling wear and typical newsroom/archive use as pictured. This came from the archive of a Pittsburgh area newspaper.
