New English Paperback. Pbo. 4to. (28 x 24 cm). In English and Turkish. 79 p., color ills. Like moths to the flame: The Ottoman fire brigades.= Ates pervaneleri: Tulumbacilar. [Exhibition catalogue]. February 24 - May 31, 2011. 500 copies were printed. Our struggle, conducted under the direction of Alm I las beginning in 1005, to see that the machines and items used in, and the documents and photographs pertaining to the Cibali Tobacco and Cigarette Factory be returned to their rightful place, reached a positive conclusion in 2008, when these items were temporarily handed over to the Rezan Has Museum after being inventoried at the Museum for the History of Science and Technology in Islam. Following two years of restoration and conservation work, we held the first of a series of exhibitions about the Factory, titled "Like Moths to the Flame: The Ottoman Fire Brigades", in order to revive the spirit of the Cibali Tobacco and Cigarette Factory and to share with you t hi- important historical artifacts on their way back home. The "Like Moths to the Flame: the Ottoman Fire Brigad(-: features those indomitable heroes of the city of Istanbul, managed again and again to rise from the ashes. Heroes outfits, performers of daring acts, these brave characters fearir:ssly fought the fires that were Istanbul's greatest nightmare. Firei'vtj.i.t.(2rs, those voluntary soldiers of Istanbul, had their own unique culture, their own rally cries, attitudes, and sayings, their own characteristic relationships, and even veritable tradition of criminal incidents amongst their own, all of which provide insight into the street culture of the city of Istanbul, and the socio-cultural structure and state politics of the period. In addition to the artifacts and historical documents belonging to the Cibali Tobacco and Cigarette Factory, our exhibition also contains selected items from the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality Directorate of Libraries and Museum's Firefighting Museum Collection and the Suna and Inan Kirac Foundation's Old Istanbul Photographs Collection. Numerous individuals worked together to make this exhibition happen, and to each of them we would like to express our thanks. First and foremost the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, but also the Atatark Library, our team who so painstakingly worked on the restoration and conservation of the works exhibited, Prof. Dr. Baha Tanman for his contributions, Galru Tanman, who was so generous with her support, and the Istanbul Research Institute, all of you have our eternal gratitude.

1946234361946. Photographs documenting the emergency response to the nine-alarm fire that destroyed the St. George ferry and railway terminal on Staten Island in June 1946 recording fire apparatus a hospital ambulance crew and rescue workers amid the smoking wreckage. The fire began at 2:30 in the afternoon of June 25 1946 under a car and spread to the terminal's wooden support pilings. Nine alarms were transmitted within half an hour summoning fifty land companies and six fireboats; three civilians were killed and more than 250 firemen and 30 civilians were injured or overcome by smoke.<br /> Photo archive of 8 silver gelatin snapshot photographs approximately 5 x 3 inches Staten Island New York with the original mailing envelope inscribed in ink "Martha Staten Island Ferry Terminal burnt down June 1947." One image centers a panel-body ambulance lettered "St. Vincent's Hospital" and "Staten Island" parked beside an open rear ambulance where attendants in white tend a patient. Another shows workmen uniformed officers and helmeted firemen clustered around the rescue vehicles below the gutted upper story. Several frames show pairs of wooden and steel rapid transit cars standing scorched on the rails beneath the twisted collapsed ribs of the train shed windows blown out and roofs caved in. A trackside view captures fire engines lined nose to tail along the roadway.<br /> The nine alarms transmitted within thirty minutes the fifty land companies and the Manhattan units racing through the Holland Tunnel show standard FDNY multi-borough mutual aid working at full stretch recorded by a bystander close enough to walk the platforms. The St. George fire ranks among the worst in Staten Island history and FDNY commanders called it one of the most stubborn blazes they had faced the burning rooted deep in the terminal's wooden pilings over the water. The destroyed structure was replaced by an entirely new $21 million terminal that opened in 1951. Overall in very good condition. A direct on-the-ground record of a multi-borough emergency response to a fatal nine-alarm fire that erased a major New York transit terminal. unknown
