TBT: Wallaceburg Fire Department helmet, 1900

Throwback Thursday is sponsored by Dresden Meat Packers:

This week’s Throwback Thursday is from the Wallaceburg Museum.

Here is what they had to say:

“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!”
