International Bridge between United States and Mexico

This postcard shows the International Bridge which connects Mexico and the United States. It probably dates from the 1900. The house to the right is the U.S. Custom's Inspection. Streetcars crossed regularly transporting people to and from the two cities. In those days, going back and forth between the two countries at the Rio Grande was easy.
