Only thing I can relate to this is that I did get a Red Ryder bb gun for Christmas. Fully equiped with shooting glasses and targets. It is amazing how accurate this thing is.

 

My father at age nine was shot in the eye with a Red Ryder BB gun. Lost that eye some years later. True story!!! Still driving at 95!

The old fire truck{#1} a 38 ford la france is still alive in Niagara Falls, at the chippewa volunteer station 4 . And in the scene of the flag pole rescue one of the fireman is wearing the helmet w the letters RFNBA . This stands for Regional Niagara Fire Buffs Association.

The old house sits at 3159 w 11th, street in cleveland and can be viewed all year long .
