This is a Seagrave pumper. This model was built from 1938 to 1952. Most were open cab, like this excellent example, but a canopy cab was also offered. The rear of the cab was accessed by a central catwalk between two separate hose beds. When fitted with a booster reel, this was usually below the hose bed at the rear. The same design was used for the famous fully-enclosed pumpers supplied to Detroit and a few other departments, and was also found on Seagrave ladder trucks and rescues of that era.
