Description |
A picture of two men repairing a Button fire engine. The picture was sent with a letter from the Volunteer Fire Company of Vernon, Inc., and the two men pictured were possibly fire fighters. On the back is a date, "Feb. 2- 1967," written in pencil. Below the date are the words "Re-assembling at Rome after [?] in [?]," written in blue pen. On the right side of the photo, written sideways, are the numbers "11, 6, 0, 4, 3, 4, 1." |
Condition Notes |
The photo has five holes in it near the top. Likely from hanging the photo up with tacks? The back of the photo also appears to have some pencil smudges near the bottom left corner, and the front appears to be stained on the bottom and right sides. |
