EDITORS COMMENTS
1937: A Day in the Life of the London Fire Brigade This selection of illustrations chronicles an eventful day in the life of the London Fire Brigade during the year 1937. The narrative begins with a pedestrian's alarming discovery of flames and smoke emanating from a building, signaling the start of an urgent response from the fire brigade. The first image depicts the fire station, where the on-call firefighters are alerted to the emergency. Communication was a crucial aspect of the brigade's operations, with a telephone exchange and map room at the headquarters serving as the nerve center for dispatching crews to the scene. Upon arrival, the firefighters assess the situation and deploy their equipment. The illustrations showcase various pieces of equipment, including fire pumps, engines, and breathing apparatus. The firemen don their gas masks to protect themselves from any hazardous fumes. The team works together to extinguish the fire using their powerful hoses and the aid of a lift to access upper floors. The illustrations capture the intensity and determination of the firefighters as they battle the flames. Once the fire has been put out, the firemen take a well-deserved break at a canteen van, enjoying a hot drink and a moment of respite. This poignant series of illustrations offers a unique glimpse into the daily life of the London Fire Brigade during the 1930s, highlighting their bravery, teamwork, and commitment to protecting their community. These illustrations are part of the extensive archive of the Illustrated London News Ltd, and were originally published by Mary Evans Prints Online. They provide a captivating window into the past, offering a fascinating insight into the history of firefighting in London during the 20th century.
