Antique PYRENE brass 1 Qt., Fire Extinguisher. Manufactured by the Pyrene Manufacturing Company, 1358 Broadway, New York, N.Y.  Last patent date is December 1911 and there is a 1911 copyright on it also. Extinguisher is EMPTY  and in very good condition with the exception a few small dents along with a few small areas of missing paint on the label (see pictures). It has a steel (?) handle as opposed to the brass handles on later models. The handle appears to have suffered some damage as one of the "locking ears" is partially broken and the handle also appears to have some cracks on it.It has been machine buffed, hand polished and clear coated. There are two brass labels, the larger one for Pyrene and a smaller Underwriters' Laboratories  label. The extinguisher measures approx. 13" tall by 3" in diameter. The pump handle does move in and out (but does not lock in place) and is being sold as a collectible/display item only. The mounting bracket is also included.
