Hook-and-ladder fire truck, circa 1918
Order an ImageWhen Fire Chief Frank Stetson was appointed in 1911, he made it his mission to replace all of Seattle's horse-drawn fire equipment with motorized trucks. In 1916, the company stationed at Fire Station No. 10 got a new motorized hook-and-ladder truck.
This photo, probably taken sometime between 1916 and 1920, shows the front wheel drive hook-and-ladder truck parked outside Seattle's Fire Station No. 10.
