Travel the World of Postage Stamps - History of Fire Engines (First Series) - "Freze" Fire Engine, (1904)) - USSR 1984 - Michel USSR 5463 - my hobby
Greetings friends!
*Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
*At a time when most people are busy with their own, important business, or, simply, wandering around the city, or resting, the fire department closely monitors the safety of their real estate, which sometimes can be at the center of unpleasant events that we incite with a fire.
*It is probably very difficult to make the decision to devote your life to firefighting at a time when many people are afraid to go into cold water, and you have to go into hot flames, almost every day.
*Fighting fires is a merciless war, the outcome of which largely depends on the speed of decision-making and the prompt delivery of fire brigades to the fire site.
*A series of stamps History of Fire Engines (First Series), issued in 1984 in the USSR. shows how the fire transport is developing, how it has improved.
*On the next postage stamp with a face value of 10 kopecks of the USSR, we no longer see a cart drawn by horses, but a self-propelled vehicle "Freze" Fire Engine, (1904), which could accommodate a fire brigade and, rather, an impressive staircase for high-altitude work.

I edited a photo in the program PhotoDirector, which I also installed on my smartphone. For my publications, I do not use stock photographs, it is fundamentally important for me to use photographs that I have made with my own hands for publication and I can name them - authorial work.
