Antique 1800s Leather Fire BucketThis is a nice solid example of a 19th century leather fire bucket. The bucket stands 13 inches tall at the top of the handle rings and is roughly 10 inches in diameter and covered in old bright red paint. The body of the bucket is very stiff leather and held together with solid copper rivets. The bucket is not badly deformed as is often found with these and is still a nice displayable example. The leather handle has some heavy surface crazing but ...is still very strong and flexible. At some point someone polished the top iron band and all of the copper rivet on the bucket but this does little to negatively affect the aesthetic appeal.Nice old piece of fire fighting memorabiliaIf you have any questions please contact me.This is the very beginning of a large collection of historical memorabilia I will be liquidating.
