Tom is right, its a Roe, I restored one red, white and blue in Standard Oil about 2 years ago. Kind of a hard little guy to find actually. I did one for a customer, got it done in about 3 days. I think she brought around $900 when he sold it. Goober

Yes, it was the first edition. I keep both versions of the book with me at all times. A set in the shop, a set in the truck, a set in the house (not in the bedroom) and a set in the swap meet crates.
I really don't know what we would have done if Jack did not step up and put these books together.

Book companies have editors, just like TV shows have producers, you do what they want if you want your book published.

OK everyone settle down.
First off, sharp eye Tom for spotting the pump.
In defense of Jack, it IS in BOTH books.
First edition, P244 lower center.
Second edition, P236 upper right.
Thanks Jack for printing BOTH books.
I have two sets as well, but was too lazy to look for the other book, and missed it in the one I had anyway.
I have only found one Neptune pump in all my gathering, that was not in Jack's books. Nice job Jack.
