Hello all, I just bought these Gulf gas pump plates off a guy I know and had a few questions. I don't know alot about the Gulf brand so I was wondering a few things about these plates. What years were these plates used? How were they used? Do they go together or were they used separate? What kind of pump did Gulf use these plates on? Thanks in advance for any info.

Mike

The book says both plates were used from 1950-1956.
Good Gulf was regular grade, No Knox was premium.

...check the back of the No-Nox sign - there might be a faint date...


Looking for better Gulf items: signs, globes, cans and paper - especially porcelain Gulf flanges, and Gulf A-38 & A-62 ad glass...

...some of the No-Nox signs have a faint date...not all of them have it, and it's hard to see...

The No Nox plate is not dated on the back. Thanks for the information.

These plates were used between 1952 - 56, Source is Guide to gas pump restoration by Henderson and Benjamin.
