It wasn't a "BIG" kill so to speak, but this is my BOTW. For me a least, this was a complete first time seen item and just had to get it. grin

Well after a year of trying to get this pump i was finally able to get it. It has been sitting in a ladys yard for thirty years and still has the original blue cylinder and white crown globe on top. I was also able to get this lubester in the deal as well. The only bad thing is when i got home the globe and pump were too tall for the garage. So i now have another globe in the house. Thanks to sanford for helping me get this thing home and unloaded. This is also my first visible pump.



this next picture is what it looked like when i found it with the globe still on it

Jim i love the zephyr matches

Open up a 2' sq recess in the ceiling.
There is a collector in Colo. that couldn't go up, so he dug a pit for his visibles. When you 1st see them, they look like they have been shortened. As you get closer you see they are full size.
