MILWAUKEE FIRE DEPARTMENT MUSEUM

Milwaukee's Fire Department Museum was part of the Doors Open Milwaukee event in late September.  It is sincere, if small, located in a former firehouse on Milwaukee's South Side.  I wasn't sure how I would try to capture the venue.  There were a few antique vehicles . . .


. . . including this Ford emblem on a fire truck.


But in the end, I decided that my best bet was to focus on the human side of the museum's exhibits:

Boots.



Helmets.



And an old pay phone.



It had been a while since I had seen a dial phone.
