The Fire Chief's Studebaker-Flanders Roadster, Harrisburg, Pa., ca. 1914

The Fire Chief's Studebaker-Flanders Roadster, Harrisburg, Pa., ca. 1914
That's John C. Kindler, who was the fire department chief in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, in the driver's seat of his 1913 Studebaker-Flanders automobile. His passenger is Edward Halbert, assistant chief. Note the fire gong and the two fire extinguishers mounted on the side of the vehicle.

The setting shows Front Street in Harrisburg, with the benches and trees of Riverfront Park across the street and the faint blue of the Susquehanna River barely visible in the background.
