'Vintage' says the e-Bay listing.

The accompanying product photographs (made by the seller, not stock imagery) show that it has the manufacturer's URL engraved on its base.

I wonder how many people will be given pause by the fact that the era of the WWW is now 'vintage'.

And, as it ever is with 'quality', the adjective is missing. Is it a good vintage? Or a bad one?

1894 Silsby Fourth-Size Steam Pumper: Victorian Firefighting Classic.
A rare and impressive example of late-19th-century firefighting technology.
Built by the American Fire Engine Company (later part of American LaFrance), this horse-drawn apparatus was powered by a steam boiler driving a rotary pump capable of delivering around 500 gallons of water per minute.
Originally delivered to the Philadelphia Fire Department.

Hello Out There in the Land of Friendica


Hello to all, here's my #introduction. I'm Rebecca, and I am #newhere and looking for a social home to base out of. I left FB four years ago, had a stint on Mewe 3 times, as well as a few others. None of them had what I was looking for. I have landed here, even though I first looked into the platform about a decade ago. A lot has changed since then.

So, a little about me. I am mother to 2, grandmother to 6, married to an Englishman and live in hot, humid South Carolina, USA. I am a #creative, #maker, hobby/enthusiast #photographer, and grower of #houseplants, among several other things that I will share as I learn to navigate this platform. Other keywords that apply to me are #handmade #junkjournal #papercrafts #photography #collector #vintage #ephemera

Thanks for having me. 🙂



This is very cool!

Picked up these two North Dakota cookbook gems yesterday — KX Cook Book Volume I and II. Years unknown. Are any of my Fargo/Grand Forks peeps in the KXJB viewing area familiar with “Alma’s Kitchen Almanac”? Looks like Alma June Hager was from Valley City, her sidekick was named Jim, and I sure hope some Dakota Maid aprons still exist.
