Great Whimsical Fire Alarm Lamp 1930s-40s Alarm Box Converted in 1970s

This is a great whimsical lamp made from a circa 1930s or 1940s red alarm box (it was converted in the 1970s). The burlap lamp shade has a great large applied cloth fire engine! This is in wonderful condition and still works. There is a switch under the lampshade, but the light can also be turned on and off simply by using the "STOP" and "START" buttons on the box.

Circa 1930s-1940s (converted in 1970s).
