EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed colour lithograph print captures the essence of fire-fighting technology in the late 19th century. The Steam Fire-Float, depicted in all its glory, was a revolutionary invention that helped combat fires with efficiency and speed.
Issued as part of a set of cigarette cards by John Player in 1930, this illustration showcases the ingenuity and craftsmanship of English fire-fighting appliances. The intricate details of the machinery, from the steam engine to the hoses and nozzles, are brought to life through vivid colours and meticulous shading.
The history behind this image is rich with significance, reflecting a time when firefighting was a dangerous yet essential profession. Firefighters relied on tools like the Steam Fire-Float to extinguish flames and save lives in times of crisis.
As we gaze upon this piece of art, we are transported back to an era where innovation and bravery went hand in hand. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of fire safety technology, while also paying homage to those who risked their lives for the greater good.
