Hose Wagon No.2, Andover, Massachusetts
Taken around 1905 in the Ballardvale section of Andover, this is an image produced from a scan of a 5 x 7 glass negative in my collection. This shows what could be a Seagrave Hose Wagon shortly after it's purchase by the town of Andover. At present, the identity of the person on the left is unknown, but the driver could be Jack Haggerty, who drove Ballardvale Steamer N0.2 from 1887 to 1927. I've made a large print of this image that I'll show to the folks at the Andover Historical Society to see if they can provide any information on the wagon and driver.
Two 5 x 7 glass negatives were given to my sister by her mother-in-law years ago, and now are part of my collection. The second plate, to be scanned and posted later, shows an early electric "horseless carriage" with a man (fireman) and a woman seated inside. The man might possibly be the driver of the hose wagon.
