Hey everyone,
I just came across some really interesting photos shared by Larry Shapiro. He’s been contributing to the ongoing conversation about classic Seagrave apparatus that once served our area, which was started by Mike Summa. These photos showcase the early Seagrave units from Glenview, and they’re definitely worth checking out! #throwbackthursday
Here’s one of the classic Seagrave engines that were part of the Glenview Fire Department. The attention to detail in these vehicles is incredible, and it’s amazing to see how far firefighting equipment has come since then. This particular unit was captured beautifully by Larry Shapiro.

And here’s another shot of a Seagrave engine. It’s fascinating to see how these vehicles were designed with both functionality and aesthetics in mind. Each component seems to serve a specific purpose, and you can tell there was a lot of thought put into their construction.

Finally, let’s not forget about the aerial trucks. These were crucial for reaching those hard-to-access areas during emergencies. The classic Seagrave aerial truck shown below is a testament to the innovation and engineering prowess of its time.

These images are more than just nostalgia—they’re a reminder of the rich history behind firefighting in our area. It’s always inspiring to see how past technologies laid the groundwork for what we have today. Thanks to Larry Shapiro for sharing these fantastic photos!
Let me know if anyone else has stories or memories related to these vehicles. I’d love to hear them!
Best,
