AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Enamelled plaque for the prevention of forest fires in the USA (U.S. Department of Agriculture) with their mascot Smokey Bear.

Diameter: 30 cm

Very good condition, enamel chips and signs of wear and age. See photos for more details.

From a US stock.

The idea of Smokey Bear was conceived in 1944 during World War II after an enemy shell landed in the Los Padres National Forest off the coast of California. The United States Forest Service determined that a national symbol was needed to help a fire prevention campaign and, after many candidates, decided to use a bear. The Forest Service and the Wartime Advertising Council named the bear Smokey in honor of a highly respected New York City fire chief, “Smokey” Joe Martin.

Careful and fast shipping.
