Chief's Car

They bought the Chief a Buick.

Martin Sernstinger took a bunch of photographs of Kalamazoo fire equipment in the mid-1950s; they have the look of official photographs but it's quite possible he was a firefighter. I inherited these pix from my dad, who was a firefighter for much of that decade.

This photo was taken at the Kalamazoo fairgrounds; the horse-racing oval is in the background. I always thought that grandstand was something wonderful.

Explored! #376 on Saturday, July 5, 2008, but no longer in the day's top 500. Thanks!
