1888 Echelle "Rosalie" Gugumus Firetruck

This is one of my son's oldest firetruck design made by Del Prado and was a gift from his uncle Rollie. It doesn't have an engine and is horse driven. The wheels turn but I was hoping the ladder moves up and down but its too fragile and might break.

This is very nice and a great addition to Ken's growing firetruck collection.
