Hi  :elf:

   If you look at all the sets that red piece came in it would appear that Playmobil intended it to be an extinguisher. Some of the sets like Gordon mentioned also came with a gray bull horn. The current extinguisher that Bill used seems to have shown up in 1986-ish. As soon as it came out the one mentioned was phased out. I too always thought it was a classic voice amplifier as you would see at sporting events.

If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

What kind of portable fire extinguisher was it modelled after? I've never seen one like that in this country!
  Forget about all of the other stuff,....all we need is the reintroduction of the 3526 Fire Engine!

I see now, it would be considered a class A type Acid solution & baking soda powder pressurized Fire Extinguisher here in the USA. From evidence of your pictures a very early design used mainly in the UK & her territories abroad?

Hi Gordon  :elf:

   That is an odd looking extinguisher. The oldest one I have is quite simple and is advertised as a toy also

Sure Gordon, instructions say place hose into mouth, clinch hose with teeth, then turn instrument upside down & hold on  :lol:!
