Thanks to all for the updated info and to Steve for the pic of Snorkel 7. I still question the correct size of Snorkels 6 and 7. The Iconografix book shows Snorkel 6 as an 85' Strato-Tower, which is where I got that info. You say they were 65' instead. I have compared photos with known 65' and 85' Strato-Towers from other FD's and with the 55' and 75' Pitmans and I believe that the Chicago Strato-Towers may have been 75' units. They appear to be too long to only be 65'. Can anyone verify what size they were, perhaps from an old roster or other document?
I'm still hunting photos of SS-2's 1957/62 IHC/Erlinder and Snorkel 4's 1966 IHC/Pierce.
