Chicago Fire Department history (more)

This from Andrew McCullough:

This is a scan of one of my father’s slides. He was engineer on E5 at the time.  The engine is a 1969 Seagrave 1500 GPM.  It was close to new here, so this must be 1969-70. 
Location is E5’s quarters 324 S Desplaines St.  Photo by the late John McCullough.
