Bear Creek, WI mystery siren

Hey everybody. I was searching for vintage siren photos and found this

By the horn, it's very likely an older Sterling M-10. If you can find any pictures of a side view, It would be easier to tell if it was a Sterling M-10 or Y-10.

Thanks for posting! Based on a conversation with other siren enthusiasts, we've come to believe this is a Sterling Model M due to the size, the intake and sounder shape, and the small inner ring in front of the intake. This was most likely a very old Model M.

I also found this in Wausau,

Judging by those downward projectors, that looks to be a Federal Model 5 or 7. Which building was this on, out of curiosity?

Yeah, That is 100% a model 5/7. Nice building tho.

501 Stewart Avenue, Wausau, WI. Trinity Lutheran School. Actually, It is now the 4th confirmed civil defense siren system in Wausau. This is not Rib Mountain because I found this
