Harry O. Ricci WAS the company. Just a guy who did most of the production himself believe it or not. His son Len said he e'en had his own foundry. I consider Sirex pieces of art since they were created by basically one guy. With the The model 50, the only part not made by him was the projection cones. Pretty amazed when I found out. Originally in New York, retired to phnx but came out of retirement when civil defense commander asked him to do alot more siren work in New York so he opened shop in phnx. Would love to see any ID plates from your unit.
