Historic Photos




				Historic Photo Collection The Iowa Department of Transportation's Historic Photo Collection is a compilation of transportation-related photos gathered by DOT employees, recovered from vintage postcards, or donated to the department. It is one of the few collections of historical transportation photos of its type in Iowa and the Midwest. The collection spans a wide range of subject areas and examines all modes of transportation. Over 2,300 images are currently available and additional photos and updates are being made continuously. Many of the images are one-of-a-kind, rare, or unique and are part of the Iowa DOT's lantern slide collection. Many of the photos are unidentified and we would appreciate any help the public can give us in the identification process. If you can help us identify an image, click here to go to our contact form.
