TBT: Wallaceburg Fire Chief helmet, 1900

Throwback Thursday is sponsored by AM Hauling:

The photo above was provided by the Wallaceburg & District Museum.

Here is what the Museum had to say about the photo:

“The first fire department in Wallaceburg was the Maple Leaf Hook & Ladder Company which formed in 1850. While not quite that old, we have this Fire Chief’s helmet c. 1900 on display at the museum. Check it out!”

If you have an old photo, or video, that you would like to see on the Sydenham Current, let us know by sending us an email to sydenhamcurrent@gmail.com.
