Description

"Twenty-One Years of Progress in Fighting and Preventing Fires," Ralph J. Scott, from "The American City," September 1930. The piece, written by Los Angeles Fire Department chief engineer Ralph Scott is broken down into sections detailing outstanding improvements, the two-platoon system, improved pension systems, technical education for firefighters, salvage work, rescue work, motor apparatus, and fire prevention bureaus and appropriate legislation. There are three images of fire-fighting vehicles. As disbound, with some edge browning, corner creases and minor soiling and rubbing, the condition is good.
