2007 YEAR IN REVIEW!
Normally I do not promote products here, but this one is an exception. The Ahrens Fox
Video Library has 25 videos to choose from, and among them are several from Massachusetts, particularly Norfolk & Bristol Counties. These videos were filmed by the late
Stanley Chilson, possibly the area's pioneer in on-scene photography. In fact, Mr. Chilson
was the official photographer for several communities, including Franklin, Millis & Plainville.
I now have 5 videos from the collection: Firefighting In New England Vols. 1 & 2,
Fire In The Woods, Classic Fire Engines, and Fires, Wrecks & Rescues.
That last title was very special. While watching it, I saw footage from an early 1940's
MVA in Franklin where my Grandfather, Franklin Police Sgt. Ned Dacey, was assisting
an injured patient. Good stuff! There are also black & white and color videos from fires
& incidents from Walpole, Wrentham, Norfolk, Fall River, Norwood, New Bedford, and more.
And, there is a special segment on the creation of the Massachusetts Forest Fire Control.
I'm quite pleased with my purchase!! LINK to the FSP site here.
