The Pioneer No.1 dated 1938. I can't find any other information and would be delighted to hear more information. This is for display in my garage beside other 1930s/40s memorabilia and my 1941 Chevy Pickup

Pioneer Hook and Ladder Company No. 1.....?
When I clk. on the pix, I get "unavailable" so can't read anything.
Thanks. On closer inspection I found a company name and then after lots more searching I found this - http://www.gracesguide.co.uk/File:Im1912IM-Walk.jpg - the same model but a bit earlier. I've now contacted the local history group in Laisterdyke to see if they have any history on the company.
