[quote name='Dr. Stinebaugh' post='119978' date='Jun 16 2007, 16:30 ']These old parade photos came in trade, so the original photographer is unknown, as is the location of this parade, altho its listed as a New York- New Jersey Firemen's Association on the photos. The RR station in the background is certainly a landmark.

Any additional info is welcome, there are a lot of unknowns here.

1st is a Maxim city service ladder from Bogota Hook&Ladder Co.[/quote]

i believe that the parade is in ridgefield park nj bergen county at railroad ave and mt vernon st that looks like the train station in the picture and i think the parade was in 1947

Thank you sir, for the info! Given the state of things today, 1947 would be a good choice for the way-back machine...
