Vintage General Quick-aid Brass Fire Extinguisher *chris-craft 1952-1955 on 2040-parts.com
Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States
|
This is an empty vintage brass fire extinguisher made
by the General Fire Extinguisher Co. and it is model 85HD. It is the 1
qt. size and is about 14" long and comes with it's original mounting
bracket which has a new coat of black paint. It has been polished
and lacquered and as you can see in the pictures, it displays very
well. Someone did a lot of work on the website "vintagefe" and that
site states that General fire extinguishers were featured in Chris-Craft
accessories from 1937 to 1960. This would be the correct extinguisher
for a 1952 - 1955 Chris-Craft boat. The extinguisher has no dents and just two small dings on the backside at the bottom. The T pump handle moves in and out as designed. The brass label retains nearly
all of it's original paint. The would make a great addition to a
collection or mounted on a vintage boat, car, or truck. Please check
out my other vintage fire extinguishers I have listed.
