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 well 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 histo...ry. 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.
