The Mack "C" Series is Mack's first "cab forward" style.
It replaced the popular Mack "L" Series in use since 1940.
It's roots were with Ahrens Fox that originally patented the "Cincinnati cab."
Recognized by its rounded cab, round Mack logo, and rounded side fenders. 
This open cab Mack "C" pumper appears to have belonged to
Harrisburg, PA Engine 13.  Privately owned at time of photos.

Mack Fire Trucks
Possibly America's most famous manufacturer of fire apparatus,
Mack Trucks of Allentown, Pennsylvania began building fire trucks around 1911.
Over the years, these beautiful fire engines, bearing the trademark "Bull Dog",
proved to be as tough and reliable as the saying "Built like a Mack Truck" indicates.
Thousands of these classic apparatus served over the years.
Mack stopped making custom apparatus in 1990 to the dismay of Mack fans.
This is a tribute to some of the Macks I have admired had the pleasure of photographing.
