can you be more specific? is it an oil lubester or a visible gas pump? if it is an oil lubester is it on wheels?

American made these units in the late 1920's and early 30's. They offered an "800" series and a "Slim Jim" series. They offered round, square and square tanks on wheels. If the model had a visible swing pump, the model # ended in "VS". Contact me if you need more info at rscobie@gaspump.com or scobi001@tc.umn.edu. Ron

ERB62-please call Vic's Place @ 405-282-5586 and we can talk cylinders. We have all sizes of original glass cylinders...but if you don't want to tie up that kind of expense, we also carry a very nice, seamless clear acrylic version. The originals really give the pump a nice vintage look, but the acrylics are less cost-prohibitive.
