    Description

    Up for sale is a very rare late 1800's leather fire helmet. Best guess is that this is from Proctorville OH (PFD) considering that is where it was found. Overall the helmet is solid and in good to great condition. Its all original. The helmet is marked on the inside "CAIRNS & BRO NEW YORK VENTILATED HAT".
    The only issues are the D is missing in PFD, the beak has been bent inward on the top of the helmet (i think a pair of pliers could easily fix this but dont want to risk it), & there is a small chunk of leather missing on the backside of of the eagle near the top of the hat.
    PLEASE ASK ANY QUESTIONS AS NEEDED.
