Dear Sir,
I have been for the last twenty-five years head photographer to the Fire and Emergency Departement in the City of Barcelona, Spain. I reached you through the International Helmet Collectors Association, of which I am an old member.
I have been collecting for more than twenty years all those things that have relation with the Emergency Services.
I am the owner of a collection in wich there are around 3.000 items representing several Departments: Fire, Rescue, Ambulance, Salvage Corps, Civil Defence, Emergency Medical Services, Mountain Rescue Services, Mining Rescue Teams, Maritime Rescue Departments, etc. from all around the world.
I am mainly interested in helmets, but any part of the work or dress uniform is always interesting to me.
I would be very grateful if you could send me any examples of LAPEL PINS, TIE TACS, COLLAR BADGES, PATCHES, SHIELDS, HELMET FRONTS, WALL PLAQUES OR MARKS which relate to your Service.
But what would be really a great achivement for me, is a WORN helmet from your Department, if you think that is possible.
Thank you for taking the trouble of reading this letter, I look forward very much to hearing from you in the near future.
Yours faithfully,


Joaquim Pol
