It was a volunteer fire department in Philadelphia, formed with the assistance of Benjamin\nFranklin in 1736. Known as the \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Bucket Brigage,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d it\nwas the very first such fire company\nin the colonies. In the days when wooden structures were highly\nvulnerable to fire, the formation of this volunteer company of citizens was\ninvaluable. With leather buckets, a\nfew hooks, and ladders, their success resulted in many more fire companies forming, and the results were immediate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"999\" height=\"999\" src=\"https:\/\/www.inthehumidor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Union-Fire-SM-Panel-A.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5462\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.inthehumidor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Union-Fire-SM-Panel-A.jpg 999w, http:\/\/www.inthehumidor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Union-Fire-SM-Panel-A-150x150.jpg 150w, http:\/\/www.inthehumidor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Union-Fire-SM-Panel-A-300x300.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.inthehumidor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Union-Fire-SM-Panel-A-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 999px) 100vw, 999px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u00e2\u20ac\u0153When we partnered\nwith Famous to create\nthis blend, we wanted\nto link it to the history of Pennsylvania <\/em><em>in some manner.
