Description
Made by the Ives, Blakeslee Company. Bridgeport, Ct. - Circa 1895 - 15 3/4" Tall. From the Collection of Frank Kidd. As cities took shape at the close of the 19th century, buildings grew taller. By necessity, new forms of firefighting equipment were developed to accommodate the reality of elevated fire rescues. Ives' extendable aerial ladder toy clearly reflects these changes. If is definitely one of the rarest cast iron fire toys in the hobby. A good unbroken example of this toy only comes to market very seldom.
