Product Description

The2FunAdGuyz offer a very new print of a remarkable FDNY fire truck photograph from 1913. The photo was taken on March 20, 1913 as Engine 91 of The New York City Fire Department made its first trip.



A group of firefighters are shown standing and sitting in the truck while alongside is a partial view of an old steam fire engine. Next to it is a partial view of a steam engine pumper. The very size of this photo allows you to see the wagon’s rugged construction combined with an ornate design and the Mack Truck logo clearly visible on the radiator.

HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE: The first decade of the twentieth century witnessed the introduction of an incredible array of firefighting technology and equipment. Every few years a new technology replaced an older one. Horse-drawn fire wagons gave way to motorized car, fire trucks and fire engines. Steam Pumps meant greater capacity to deliver water faster. Searchlight trucks were used for fighting at night and in very smoky fires. Ladder trucks reached higher and higher as buildings grew taller and taller. In the end, however, the bravery and skills of the firemen was still the essential ingredient in successful fire department, large and small.

PAPER QUALITY: This new print is on a highest quality, acid-free, 100-pound glossy premium text paper that allows for maximum color brilliance and fidelity for older images.
