Calumet Skyway opening ceremony

 

Richard J. Daley accepts a rolled document from a young boy on crutches at the opening ceremony for the Calumet Skyway, as Eleanor "Sis" Daley and other children and young people look on. The group stands on the roadway next to the traffic barricades. A sign installed above the roadway reads "Entering Chicago - Calumet Skyway Toll Bridge".
