Scope and content
Real picture postcard of the interstate bridge leading down to the tollhouse in Hudson. Image is taken head-on from the top of the bridge. Number on front: 783 Text on verso: "The Co-Mo Company. Post Cards. Minneapolis", "CO - MO QUALITY", and "Genuine Photograph". U.S. Highway 12 once crossed the St. Croix River on a toll bridge between Wisconsin and Minnesota, which provided revenue for the town. With the construction of Interstate 94, the toll bridge was removed, though the long causeway extending to the former bridge location is now open to the public as a pedestrian walkway.
