Part 1 (2005/150): Original Collection, circa 1964-1988
3.0 cubic feet (6 card boxes and 1 archives box)
: Black and white and color photographs and color transparencies of the landscape adjacent to national, state, and county highways in the district. Some bridges, primarily those on local roads are also included. Counties best documented are Marathon and Wood, but Adams, Green Lake, Juneau, Marquette, Portage, Waupaca, and Waushara are also represented; municipalities that are best represented are Wausau and Wisconsin Rapids. Rural views document farms, farmhouses, barns, rural taverns, and roads. Urban views typically document houses, businesses and storefronts, gasoline stations, and streets and intersections. Properties located on local streets and roads that are not also national, state, or county highways are not represented. The transparencies document public hearing presentations about proposed relocations of USH 51 in Marquette County; some slides are marked to indicate the proposed route. The photographs are arranged alphabetically by county and then by type. Original negatives, which are present for only a few prints, are arranged following the prints. Most original polaroid prints and panoramas that were created by the district taping together several prints are only available in digital form in the Historical Society's image management database.

Part 2 (2008/068): Additions, 1976-1999
0.8 cubic feet (3 archives boxes of photographs)
: Color photographic prints and transparencies documenting the condition of local bridges and roads in Marathon and Portage counties and other parts of Transportation District 4 and extensive shots of USH 51 construction projects in Wisconsin Rapids. The latter views show both the built environment near the construction site as well as the construction process. In addition, there are several black and white aerial views taken in 1976 and 1982 of USH 51 in Portage County. Several deteriorating images which originally consisted of prints taped together by the district office to create panoramas were scanned, catalogued as part of Wisconsin Historical Images, and destroyed.
