Found this face plate but have no idea what model pump it fits. It is white porcelain with the Bennett script on it and looks identical to regular face plates but much smaller. Measures 11 inches high and 7 inches wide. The pump must have a visi glass because it states that it must be full on the face plate, but the hole for the visi glass is not in the face plate. Will try and attach photo but haven't had much luck with that.

Will need a photo to id for sure.
That is a pretty small pump plate. Seems to me, that it is either for a farm pump in that case it would only somehow amount dispensed or it is the inner plate for a later remote reset pump.

If you have what I think you have, I believe they are generic. I had a few years ago, they were about 10" X 14" (give or take), I could not find a Bennett that they might have been used on.

Hi Jack Thx for your input. I now have attached a photo so maybe it will be easier to ID. I got it at an auction in a box with other parts from an garage that closed. I have redone many pumps before but have never run into such a small size face plate. There was one on ebay from New Orleans a few weeks ago but he also did not know the model it came off.
thx Pump Grump in Canada

I'm thinking the small Bennett/Erie pumps with the stepped top used by Gulf?

Inner face plate for 1960's Bennett 3000 series pumps.
