EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the 1920s, the London Fire Brigade is seen battling a major blaze at the Daylight Rubber Company warehouse located on Farringdon Road. The fire, which involved extensive rubber goods, required an impressive array of equipment and personnel to quell the inferno. The London Fire Brigade, with its iconic turntable ladder and powerful pump engines, is at the forefront of the scene. Firefighters, clad in their protective gear, are seen operating hoses and directing water towards the flames. Oxygen apparatus and breathing equipment are also in use, ensuring the safety of the brave men and women on the scene. The crowd of onlookers, drawn by the spectacle of the fire, is visible in the background, adding to the bustling atmosphere of the City of London. The smoke billowing from the warehouse creates a stark contrast against the clear blue sky, highlighting the intensity of the blaze. This photograph is a testament to the bravery and skill of the London Fire Brigade during the 1920s. The image captures the essence of firefighting in the era, with its vintage fire engines, traditional firefighting techniques, and the raw power of the water hoses. The photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a unique perspective on the London Fire Brigade's history and its role in protecting the city from major fires. The photograph, taken by an unknown photographer and published by Mary Evans Picture Library, is a valuable historical record of the London Fire Brigade's past and the vital role it continues to play in the safety and security of London.
