I found this tray at the flea market. Looks like any restaurant tray other than having the fire trucks and ambulances on it. The price was $65. I left it there for that price. Sometimes I wonder what do people use as ideas when pricing some of the stuff you see for sale in the flea markets or antique malls. Does anyone know anything about the Tiltonsville Volunteer Fire Dept?
Where was/is it?

I recognized the name immeately, since I just saw another picture of their Corvair ............
 
Tiltonsville is in Ohio...I recognized the American-LaFrance 700 Series pumper on the left, a 1950 I think. I photographed it at a muster in Columbus a few years ago. The ambulance looks like a `54 Superior-Pontiac. - Walt

Reminds me of a time I was walking around a car parts swap meet with a friend who is into '57 Chevies. We stopped at this one guy's table that had alot of 57 parts. My friend picked up an item and the resulting conversation went like this...

"What is this?"

"$20"

"No, I mean what is this?"

"I don't know, but its $20."

Needless to say, part was put down and resulted in a no sale.
 
thanks

Thank you all for your input here.
It has been a long day here. About the time I thought about running the name through Google Steve had already done that.
That '54 Pontiac caught my eye too.
I thought they had quite an assortment of vehicles.
Now that I know this item is from Ohio I may have to take a second look at it.
At least to get a better picture.
