Firemen

Eight firemen pose with a long ladder, a matoi fireman's standard and a manual pump. Each man is wearing a fireman's coat, fireproof hood and head towel. This is the way firemen dressed in the Meiji Period. The background is probably part of a temple and its stone wall, perhaps a bell or lantern tower.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:R.
