New York Fire Department (1920s)

This video was made from Stillman's Fire Collection, Perlinger Archives and possibly represents what took place when a fire alarm box was pulled in Brooklyn in the 1920's. The new state-of-art Brooklyn FireTelegraph system was just completed and the movie shows how a pulled fire alarm box was received and re-transmitted to the fire stations.
