    Thank you to the historian who holds all of the Crown Firecoach historical records. I think this machine was built when they were still built in Los Angeles. This is serial number F-1579 and tags have been added to the photos to support searching. It's a 100-foot Maxim rear-mount steel ladder. It was Chula Vista Truck 1 and the 5271 on the rear may be a mutual aid number and radio callsign.

    According to a 1988 directory, Zone 5 is "South Bay" zone of San Diego County. 5200-series equipment numbers are assigned to Chula Vista Fire Department. This suggests/confirms the photo is in Chula Vista. Based on the vehicles, I suspect mid-1970s. I think this is an American La France Centurion engine. Your corrections are welcomed.
