This is an empty vintage brass fire extinguisher made by the General Fire Extinguisher Co. and it is  model 85HD.  It is the 1 qt. size and is about 14" long and comes with it's original mounting bracket which has a new coat of maroon paint.  It has been polished and lacquered and as you can see in the pictures, it displays very well.  Someone did a lot of work on the website "vintagefe"  and that site states that General fire extinguishers were featured in Chris-Craft accessories from 1937 to 1960.  This would be the correct extinguisher for a 1949 - 1952 Chris-Craft boat. The extinguisher has 1 small dent on the label which will not show up in the pictures and just 2 small dings at the backside at the bottom.  The T pump handle moves in and out as designed.  The brass label retains very little  of it's original paint. The would make a great addition to a collection or mounted on a vintage boat, car, or truck.  Please check out my other vintage fire extinguishers I have listed.
