Pair from San Francisco.  Interestingly, neither one mentions San Francisco.  Badge on left is Hallmarked Invine-Jachens.  Badge on right is Wirth and Jachens.

Though not marked on the front, the C.H. Hanson hallmark makes this to be a safe bet from Chicago.

From Chelsea Mass, interestingly, this badge was part of a group that was in a fire, hot enough to melt the solder that held the pin.  I'm surprised it wasn't worn smooth considering the fire load in Chelsea!

This is from Berkley, CA, hallmark is hard to read but I think it is: Anderslice & Co., San Francisco.

A budget version of the fire line badge from Portland, Maine.  The red one has a hallmark from Bastian Bros, the black one has no hallmark.
