These Photos were given to the
Company by Jason Hartz of Tamaqua Citizens Fire
Co. and were scanned onto disk by Joe Seavers.
This is just some of the photo from the collection. Talking to some
of our older members, it is estimated that these photos were taken between
1945 and 1949. Some of the clues is the flag on the front of the
building has a "V" made out of stars
which could possibly be from the WWII celebration. The second is the
trucks pictures are the 1924 Fox, the Mack Ladder from the 1920's, the 1939
Fox, and the 1916 Fox Steamer. More pictures will be added in the
very near future.
