Hi Don, I have one very similar, I think mine is a #40. I have it rented out, so I can't just go check the number for you. I think they also made a #39 that was very similar.

You have a ECO-40, introduced in 1931. The 39 is identical but without the light set-up on top. The unit was offered in air only and air and water.
What is very unusual about your unit is that piece sticking out the right side that is holding the hose. My assumption is that it is the water hose (the air hose is on a reel, exiting near the botton of the front). None of my literature shows the water hose. Does it look original? Can I use a copy of the picture in my air book if it is printed?
By the way, if that is the water attachment, I believe the estimated value should be higher.

One more thing, according to my literature that is not the original globe. The original globe is flat on both sides.

Hi jack- thats the air hose hanging on hook- was off reel when i picked it up- Hook looks original- i looked carefully and could not find where there was any provision for water- You can use this pic in book- no problem- I could send you a pic without hose hanging on hook if that would look better for book - thanks for info- don

Thank you, and I would like to get a pic without the hose. Is it possible to get a close-up of the hanger.
