EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, hailing from the early 1900s, transports us back in time to the Surbiton Fire Station in Surrey, where a team of brave firemen are seen tending to their Shand Mason fire engine. The fire engine, adorned with intricate brass details and the distinctive red color, is a striking sight against the backdrop of the station yard. Two loyal dogs, a part and parcel of the firefighting crew, are present in the scene. One of the dogs, with its ears perked up and a determined look in its eyes, is seen climbing the ladder of the fire engine. The other dog, possibly keeping watch or providing companionship, lies at the foot of the engine. The firemen, dressed in their full uniforms, including the iconic brass helmets with moustaches, exude a sense of professionalism and camaraderie. Their focused expressions and attentiveness to their duties underscore the importance of their role in the community. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing us with a window into the history of firefighting in the Edwardian era. It is a poignant reminder of the essential role that firefighters and their loyal canine companions have played in protecting communities throughout history.
