Possibly a a Wayne- Boyle Dayton when they were bought out ? Hard to tell by pictures especially without a picture of the bonnet. The indicators for sure look like Boyle Dayton .

I went back and found this information that DB wrote once . Air Operated is a BD 61, Hand Pump Operated is a BD 62.
The 2 pic's under WAYNE are the BD 61 & 62, not the WAYNE 83 & 87.
The cylinder casting of the BD is a convex concave . On the Wayne 83/87 cyl. casting looks similar a 615 casting w/o the large webs on underside.

WAYNE bought out the Boyle Dayton Pump Co. about 1928 & continued the brand pumps as Boyle Dayton Pump Co. Division of Wayne Pump & Tank Co.

Vic's is also another place that might have original parts as these were a West Coast [Los Angeles] Company.

VERY FEW BD's were sold w/ a globe holder.

I appreciate the good information. The bases on the two pumps you posted pictures of look very similar to the base on the other pump. But, the upper castings look different. Would there have been that much variation in the Boyle-Dayton?

Thanks, Jack. I did reference your book. Based on that and the information you posted, my thought is that it is a Boyle-Dayton, primarily because of the base. It doesn't look like the base on the Bennett 810. But, maybe I'm wrong.

Then it must be a Bennett 810. I guess I was going by the base alone. Thanks.

Can you get a better picture of the bottom cylinder plate from above and the area immediately below as indicated by my arrow. I'm still curious about this pump. Two photos showing the complete pump from opposite sides would also be helpful

1. There appears to be some opening with possible lever below the bottom plate.It may be an optical illusion because of the poor photo quality.

2. The base plate appears to have a straight side, the Bennett 810 is sloped.

3. The skins appear to have a cover strip to hide the seam. The 810 has 4 matching flanges on each side through which a bolt is placed to tighten the skins together.

4. Gallon Indicators are Boyle Dayton however they could have been easily switched out.

5. When seen from the side the Bennett 810 bottom cylinder plate appears rather thin. Yours look to thick to be a Bennett 810

6. The nozzle kook is not for a Bennett 810.See photo.
