Postcards from the past - This photo of the Hinsdale Fire Department, in front of the station on First Street, was on a post card mailed on Jan. 16, 1948. It was addressed to the "Hinsdale City Hall, Hinsdale, Ill." The message was, "Dear Sirs, I found this in my old scrap book, I thought it might be interesting to the fire people." It was signed, "A Friend." (Hinsdale Historical Society photo)
