About the Item

There are 2 wood and glass frames that must be an early firefighters lifetime collection. I'm guessing these were commemorative convention badges. Most are from New York and the surrounding areas. I love the celluloid buttons showing horse drawn equipment and early fire hats. You just don't find collections like this outside museums. There are 30 pieces in all and in great condition.
