A baseball team made up of personnel from the Burbank Fire Department poses for a picture in front of a firetruck outside the department headquarters. Embroidered on the front of each uniform are the letters "B.F.D.". Although there are fourteen people in the photo, a list on the back of the photo provides only thirteen names: "Left to Right: G. Lister, J. Snyder, D. Snyder, B. Price, H. Rae, H. Hinthorne, W. Weaver, O. Cavner, B. Borer, R. Gain, P. Higdon, C. Wertzbaugher, O.
