A written history of Hinky Dinky

Monday, October 5th, 2009

This document was a long time awaiting publication. It’s finally up for you to read. As time goes along I hope to supplement it with photographic illustrations and other materials.

The history may be accessed from anywhere on the site on the list of “pages” on the right.

Here’s a convenient link:

Hinky Dinky History

Small change in the blog layout…

Thursday, September 17th, 2009

From now on, only the most recent podcast episode will appear on the main page of Hinky Dinky News. They will still all be visible if you click on the podcast category over on the right. This is meant to shift the focus of this site back toward Hinky Dinky history and memorabilia.

This 8″ x 10″ black and white acetate negative shows a large, eight-story brick building. Painted on the side of the building is: “Omaha Owned Hinky-Dinky Food Stores, Merchants Wholesale Grocery Co”. An overpass with steps leading up to it crosses the street in front of the building. There are cars parked on the right side of the street and a rail car on the left.”
