Photos that go with September 17th Jim's Journal in the Hoffman Tribune

Descriptions of the photos -
• Photo 1: This 1906 novelty postcard is real tanned leather and is Dalum’s oldest Hoffman card with the 2 cent stamp still holding.
• Photo 2: This card shows the Kensington School that was built in 1897 and destroyed by fire in 1911. The date at the bottom is when Dalum bought it on the internet.
• Photo 3: This greeting card was sent from Kensington by C. O. Lund to Mrs. Ackson in Alexandria on March 6, 1913, thanking for Christmas gifts received three months earlier.
• Photo 4: An Aug. 13, 1909, card shows the Hoffman depot, the water tank, and the train refilling its reservoir.
