Very cool shot. I'm sure it was useful in it's time.

Wow jp! Where'd you find this firetruck? My father was a fireman in Houston in the late 40, the 50's and early 60's. I'd love to see it.

Excellent shot of an old truck. I've been scanning a lot of family photos from the 30s and 40s. They look just like that. Lots of contrast and overexposure, so your shots looks authentic.
