Re: Vintage siren photos thread

Here are six 'vintage' siren photos that I have found over time... The first one is from Passaic, New Jersey with one of their gas-powered B&N Mobil Directo. This unit was removed. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54430465972_28c0d71bd1_c.jpg download by CD Sirens NJ , on Flickr The second on...

Re: The Official New Jersey Siren Map

My honest suggestion would be to go through the map and see what looks interesting if you have any questions myself and ma...

Re: Civil Defense Logo Recreation

Does anyone know what the company Sireno used as their logo? I think they just painted on it because that is what it looks like on the Model A. But I want to see if anyone else knows anything.

Re: Civil Defense Logo Recreation

The CD logo was typically a decal that they would put on the siren. They usually used a highly adhesive sticker or glued the decal onto the siren itself. If you need it, here's an original CD logo you can use: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/88/Roundel_of_the_United_States_%281961%...

Civil Defense Logo Recreation

So first, I’ll start off with the main question, does anyone know how the civil defense logo was added to the sirens? Were they painted or were they ingrained, or was there another method? The reason why I’m asking this is because I would like to restore one of my personal sirens that has two civil ...

Re: Possible Siren?????

Hello, Thank you for your patience thus far. I finally got around to investigating that siren. From my evidence, I can conclude that it was probably not a siren. The Jefferson Fire Department does not claim to have owned it. I have not checked with Sparta and I will be doing that soon. However, The ...

Re: Possible Siren?????

The siren is here on Google Maps https://goo.gl/maps/ykhkAU243sW7Z43V6 Also, I finally contacted the Jefferson Fire Department about this and they read it and ignored me. So I don't think this was for the Jefferson Fire Department. It may be for the Sparta Lake Fire Station in Sparta NJ. This depart...
