JACKSONVILLE ACOSTA TOLL BRIDGE LICENSE PLATES

These license plates were issued to those who pre-paid the
toll to pass over the Acosta draw bridge in Jacksonville, Florida. The Acosta
bridge, opened in 1921 and is seen in the above 1930's picture as the upper
bridge. Jacksonville is centrally located in Duval County. The lower adjacent bridge was for the railroad and was the first
permanent river crossing built in 1890. There seems to be some kind of code
which may indicate the type of vehicle. Please contact me if you have better or
more complete information on these.
