★★★ · More Firefighting Stuff · Christine Hennig · 2006-07-13

Various firefighting methods and devices are demonstrated in this silent firefighterâs film from the 1920s. Fans of fire, firefighting, and squirting water should like this. I liked the cool model 10-story building they used in one segment and want it for the Film Ephemera Museum of Quirky Devices. Ratings: Camp/Humor Value: *. Weirdness: **. Historical Interest: ****. Overall Rating: ***.
