One L.J. Rathman wore this badge as part of Liberty Fire Company No. 5 in Reading, Pennsylvania, probably around the 1920s. ?
The Liberty Fire Company No. 5 was established in 1854 in a fire house located on the corner of South Fifth and Laurel Street. ?

As volunteer companies gave way to municipal fire departments during the mid–19th century, these badges became mandated by uniform codes. Badges served as official identification at fire scenes, as access to buildings by unscrupulous individuals could result in looting. ?
