Hello to all,

Just bought an “alert fire extinguisher”, the one in the photo, for a couple of bucks.Very good condition, serial # 57524C.

Now, I see this one is the same but for the life of me I cannot find a manufacturing date, either on the item itself OR on your website.

Could you please direct my search OR tell me outright the information I seek.

Thank you in advance.

P.S. I don’t want to resell it to make a buck but I am curious to date my acquisitions. We have all sorts of old stuff and have all the history behind it, including previous owners etc....

I have acquired the bottom part of one from a vintage store here on Vancouver Island. I, too, am interested in an approximate manufacturing date. It’s great to have the backstory, but it would be nice to know what decade(s) these may be from.

I am using it in my front entryway for my canes and walking sticks.
