Maselli Fireplace Center
3547 Whitney Avenue
May 1, 1968

The quarried head of Sleeping Giant literally provides the backdrop for this photo.  This early evening fire was not a big one, but it was a nasty one that did a lot of damage to merchandise stored in the basement of the Maselli Fireplace Center on the east side of Whitney Avenue, just north of West Woods Road.

(Ladder 1, designated "Truck 1" on July 1, 1974, is pictured here with Car 30, a white 1966 Ford station wagon that was assigned to the shift commanders.)
