Gratacap created a specially treated leather helmet with a segmented \u00e2\u0080\u009ccomb\u00e2\u0080\u009d design that led to unparalleled durability and strength. The elongated rear brim (also known as a duckbill or beavertail) and frontpiece were 19th century innovations that remain the most identifiable feature of firefighter\u00e2\u0080\u0099s helmets. The body of the helmet was primarily designed to deflect falling debris, the rear brim prevented water from running down firefighters\u00e2\u0080\u0099 backs, and their sturdy crowns could aid, if necessary, in breaking windows."}, {"label": "Description", "content": "This white leather helmet was made by Henry T.
