WHEELED SHIELD (Sep, 1956)
WHEELED SHIELD (below) for Detroit cops protects men in blue against rioters and gunmen. Police fire through the portholes.
FLATFOOT VERSION of 65-lb. armored plate protector has spotlight on top, leggings. Portholes are made of bulletproof glass.
No comment to the guy at left, he is overpowered
but why must the guy on the left crouch behind the “wheeled shield”… ouch my back…
It’s a prehistoric Dalek! Davros would be proud….
(Pardon the obscure Doctor Who reference…)
Exterminate! – Exterminate! – Exterminate!!!!!
(see comment #2)
Interesting in a couple of ways.
Detroit had riots in the following decade & the cops wore more practical gear.
And fictional Robocop is a Detroit policeman.
