TRULY RARE and ONE OF A KIND with the high gloss red and black enamel paint restored!!! As the pictures so, this one is polished to the point that you can see yourself in the copper and brass. DO NOT MISS OUT ON THIS BEAUTY!!!!! The original extinguisher hose is still with this antique and I have polished the brass connections to a mirror finish. The cap is embossed with the history of the BADGER'S FIRE EXTINGUISHER history. There are some minor blemishes on the antique, but overall this antique shows very well. Again this extinguisher has some wrinkling along the bottom, but it is primarily in the back of the antique. It sits perfectly fine with no rocking. The few signs of use are because this was an actual piece of fire fighting history. Please, please, please look at the photographs as they tell the true story of the condition of this antique. 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. I can clean, polished and even restore the paint to these antiques but I cannot remake the metal, so any damage shows the scars of this fire fighting tool being used. These are natural blemishes that occur from prior use to fight fires, so please keep that in mind. Everything on this piece just shines and tells a fantastic story of fire fighting history. This antique has an Underwriter Laboratories Brass Tag with a very low six-digit serial number of "406938." These beauties date back to the early 1910's to the 1920's, so this is approximately 100 years old. 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 blemishes because any real antique is not mint because it is a real piece. DON'T MISS OUT ON THIS BEAUTY!!!! The copper body and the brass embossed plates are 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. PLESE LOOK AT THE PICTURES. IT IS IN GREAT SHAPE AND THE TRUE CONDITION OF THIS EXTINGUISHER IS FULLY SHOWN IN THE PHOTOS. DO NOT MISS OUT ON THIS BEAUTY. This would make the perfect gift for your collector or fire fighter!!!! Please, please, please look at the pictures. The pictures tell the true story of this beautiful antique. This is a piece of fire fighting history that is approximately over 100 years old. Please do not expect it to be in mint condition, it does have some small blemishes but this beauty shines and has a near mirror finish. Nothing that old is not in mint condition and this is NOT A REPOP PIECE, it is a true antique piece of history. If you are expecting perfection, please move on. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. Thank you for your time and good luck on the auction. I do not ship internationally (outside the United States). Please do not bid if you do not have a shipping address within the United States, as U.S. customs' law to ship even an empty fire extinguisher is to complex and difficult to handle or pay for. PLEASE LOOK AT THE PICTURES, THEY SHOW THE TRUE CONDITION OF THIS ANTIQUE. THANK YOU FOR LOOKING AND GOOD LUCK.
