LCC-LFB Change from brass to cork fire helmets
A significant landmark when on 14 July 1934 the LFB started to replace its traditional brass helmet with a new compressed cork design. It would be four years before the changeover was completed. The death of a firefighter, when his brass helmet touched a live cable during firefighting operations, brought about the policy change. Here the brass helmet, introduced by Captain Eyre Massey Shaw (Metropolitan Fire Brigade), a symbol of London's firemen for over seventy years, meets a modern, safer replacement.

Blitz in London -- improvised shoulder protectors
Blitz in London -- the London Fire Brigade innovated to protect its fire crews from injury from falling debris by utilising old rubber tyres, cut to form shoulder protectors, that were meant to be worn over the fire tunic. However their introduction did not bring about widespread usage amongst the firefighters themselves.
