I've had this in storage for a long time and finally pulled it out. On the base, casted in it says "The United States Air Compressor Co. Cleveland O". I know it's early but I was wondering if anyone knew about what time period it comes from? All info is appreciated, thanks. Les

1923. It appears that you are missing the globe holder & access door. It has been shortened(obviously) and the support rods are missing for the longer pipe. Let me know if you need more info. Ron

Sorry. I should have been more specific. The air supply pipe on yours has been shortened. It should be around 4 feet long bringing it to around 12 ft into the air. Yours looks like about two inches. Ron

Dang, why would they have it so tall? It allowed the air hose to reach all sides of a vehicle.
