Colorized photo from 1911, May 3
Original Title: Packard fire squad
Location: E. Larned at St. Antoine, Detroit, Mi

It must have been exciting back in those days. Cars were not popular yet, so it must have been a spectacle to see a arraign that had no horse pulling it. This image, or at least one very similar to it became a postcard. So the colors for the uniforms came from that. The ties, I left black, the shirts blue, pants brown. I gave them red suspenders, because as far as I know, that's how the joke goes.

I could not find the hats of that era, so i just guessed on that. The truck is a 1908-1911 Packard Model 30, (there was a reference for the 1911 on some other page, but its not a total match. But the colors wouldn't be far off. Red and brass, that's the color of a fire truck. The location is gone now, or at least I couldn't find it.

My name is Mike Savad, I create one of a kind images. Photo realistic, is what people think of first. I specialize in job themes, such as Pharmacist, Doctor, Firemen, Lawyer, etc. Steampunk is another favorite. I'm certain you will find something that you will like. My art is inspired by Norman Rockwell and Paintings from the time of the Renaissance. Be sure to visit my Scene in Color section. I expertly restore and colorize black and white images. See the past come alive with color. Each image is painstakingly cleaned and repaired, colors are researched and shaded in. Images are designed to coordinate with the rest of my collection. The past was far more colorful than you would have imagined. Want something fun to do? Sometimes I hide...
