The pictures tell the true story of this beautiful antique piece of fire fighting history. This is a RARE extinguisher as it has a beautiful copper shell body with the
original brass embossed plates
. The original high gloss red and black enamel paint for the brass embossed plates has also been restored as well
. I have restored the original paint on the cap and the front brass plates with high gloss black and red enamel paint. Everything on this piece just shines and tells a fantastic story of fire fighting history.
The Underwriter's Laboratories Serial Number is 128934, which dates this antique to approximately 1905 as embossed on the top cap.  This is a relatively low "6-digit" serial number.
Please, please, please look at all the photographs.  I have shined this antique as well as possible but this
was a tool to fight fires and condition of the copper shows it has been used to fight fires.  There are a few hardly noticeable blemishes, but this is not mint because it is a real piece of fire fighting history, and the copper body and brass embossed plates shine
.  This is an actual piece of fire fighting history and it does have some signs of use as a true tool of fire fighting history would.  Some of the internal liquids got on the metal at some point as caused some hazing but it still shines beautifully, as can be seen in the pictures.  DON'T MISS OUT ON THIS BEAUTY!!!!
This will be a great centerpiece or conversation piece. DO NOT MISS OUT!!!!!!! THIS EXTINGUISHER WAS MANUFACTURED WAS A SPECIFIC DEPARTMENT STORE AND THAT UNIQUE HISTORY IS ON THE FRONT PLATE.  This antique has the copper rivets along the back, and they are shined. The construction and serial number of this beautiful antique dates this extinguisher to the early 1900's.
This piece of history has copper rivets along the backside as well, giving it a wonderful antique and rustic look.  Further, this has history inside and out, as this antique has its original glass acid container, steel cage, and lead gravity stopper.
The copper body and the rivets along the back are all present, in great condition, and clearly shown in the photographs. I have polished the brass connectors to a mirror finish as well. The extinguisher measures 24" tall with an 8 and 1/4" diameter. The copper body
had been shined and the true condition is shown in all of the photographs
. There are minor blemishes to this real piece of fire fighting history.  Any blemishes are seen in the photographs, as this was a piece of fire fighting history and not a repop piece, so please keep that in mind. Given this antique's age, the condition of this beauty is remarkable. Also, this antique has its original hose and the brass connectors have been polished. Overall, this is a truly beautiful piece.
