1950s–1960s Rare Chrome Vintage STOP-FIRE INC. Mighty Midget 'CBM' Fire Extinguisher with Original Box & Instructions.
Manufactures by STOP-FIRE Inc., in Brooklyn 1, NY, USA.
Up for grabs is an authentic Stop-Fire Inc. Mighty Midget 'CBM' Fire Extinguisher, complete with its original decorative retail box, mounting bracket, and paper instructions. Produced in the 1950s-1960s, this chrome-plated collectible is a striking example of mid-century automotive safety equipment and makes a fantastic addition to any vintage electronics, automobilia, or industrial design collection.
Key features include a gleaming chrome-plated metal body, the iconic STOP-FIRE blue/red label (clear and fully legible), and a compact, space-saving “Mighty Midget” size – designed to fit conveniently in classic cars or small workspaces. This model originally contained 8 oz. of chlorobromomethane (CBM) under CO2 pressure, a popular fire suppressant of the era, though functionality and contents are NOT guaranteed due to age. The included mounting bracket is securely attached, making it ideal for display.
The original retail box is present—a rarity in itself! It displays moderate vintage wear, including edge fraying and some tears. The box’s vivid graphics and period branding perfectly complement the extinguisher’s retro look. Also included is the original paper instruction sheet, further enhancing this set’s collector appeal.
