Firefighters Around the World (from Del Prado)

What do firefighters look like around the world, both past and present? Del Prado produced a collection of lead firefighter figures a few years ago, and I've compiled pictures of most of them into a pair of PDF documents here: http://www.legeros.com/temp/dp/. One is sorted by country, the other by issue number. One is for buffs, the other for collectors. There are probably web sites with photos (and drawings) of real people, but this is pretty cool comparative survey. The photos are from a DP product site found some months back. There are a few images missing, alas.

The Australian is very close and could be from anywhere in the country. Where are they available from?

Great work Mike. Nice to see them all.

Re: Firefighters Around the World (from Del Prado)

Thanks Mike. As usual very well documented. Any idea if these are still available, and if so where?
