Fire drill on the Place du Palais. Monaco 1951
Onlookers line the sidewalks and balconies of Monaco's Place du Palais for a fire drill in 1951. As three firefighters rush forward with a hose, a single colleague ascends a massive turntable ladder extended from a vintage open-cab fire truck. The surrounding ornate buildings are decorated for the occasion with garlands and the red-and-white flags of the principality, the demonstration taking place on a bright, sunny day.
