Does anyone know a good place to look for an original 1926 Fry 117 Glass Cylinder? Also looking for orignal top and conduit.

Thanks!

Original cylinders are pricey [$750 for clear-1,000 blue], try contacting Miles Little or Tom Buckles in N.C. & Seth Robbins in OK.

Dick is right on the price...I currently only have one blue tinted cylinder in stock. It has a small chip but is displayable. Very expensive to ship as well. You might want to consider using a plastic cylinder?

How would it impact the value and collectability of the pump if I used an acrylic aftermarket cylinder (like they have on ebay)?

It would change the value of the pump quite a bit, at least by the value of an original cylinder.


FREEDOM oil items wanted.
