Records of the Mississippi Valley Public Service Company based in La Crosse, Wisconsin, are incomplete but include newspaper clippings (1932-1942); a franchise book (1883-1913); and personnel records (ca. 1914-1936).

The earlier newspaper clippings, 1932-1934, include articles pertaining to the Mississippi Valley Public Service Company. Most of the clippings from 1935-1942 are notices of schedule changes and company advertisements.

The franchise book includes copied agreements between four utilities and their shareholders and appropriate municipalities. The four companies are La Crosse City Railway Co. (1892-1908), La Crosse Water Power Co. (1905-1913), Winona Railway & Light Co.(1883-1909), and Wisconsin Railway, Light & Power Co. (1913).

The personnel records (circa 1914-1936) are arranged alphabetically and include information such as address, birth date and wages of the employee. A summary of accidents incurred during employment is also included. This set is not complete but is representative of typical streetcar employees.
