The pump of the month for the month of July is the Bennett 145 and Bennett 155 Series of pumps. The 145 is the showcase version. One version of the 145 and 155 has the drum computer and the others have a veedor root as a meter. Super cool unique pumps!! Please share what information and or pictures you have of these pumps! Thank you and enjoy the month of July!!

Here is a picture of a 155 off of the internet since I do not have one yet!

Great POTM but this time I’m out ! I’ve been after one of these that I found picking in Utah but the owner won’t let go of it just yet!!! He keeps saying someday.

Here are a couple that are in my collection. The green one has a Veeter-Root computer and the red one has the drum computer.

Here are a few pictures from a sales brochure. This is the Veeter-Root version.

Here is a "Station Master" display pump. This is a model 145-4 with the "Vento" air eliminator and "See-gauge refill" ( that is the tube going from the top to the visi-gauge). The model 165-4 is the display pump without the "Vento" tube.

I have had this picture for a period of time and do not remember who originally posted it or were it is now.

Very cool!

Here is Don Sherwood`s 155 with air and water.

Don's pump features our decals - recreated using the sales brochure Matt posted earlier as reference.

The Shoebox lenses are ours too. Just a different shaped 'Ad Glass' panel as far as I'm concerned. LOL

Later . . .

Don has the coolest toys!
