I have had this pump for a little while. Tore it down for sand blasting this week. Haven't been able to find much of anything on the Norco brand. Has anyone got any info?
Thanks,
Craig T

I have a Norwalk oil can that reads "Norco" as well, although I am not sure they are related.


Looking for nearly anything related to Signal Oil

This pump I got from my Father-inlaw. He got out of a resort on Lake Osakis. It must have been in use until 1991 because it did have weights and measure sticker on the face plate. It had the alumimum faces on it orginally. I upgraded to the porcelain off of ebay.
Just dropped this one and a bennett 541 off at the sandblaster this morning.
I have done my own blasting in the past, but won a gift certificate at a silent auction benefit from a commercial blaster. Told him to take it easy.
Norco must not have been around for long.???

Sorry for the delay, but here is a pic of the Norco globe. It is screen painted onto flat glass lenses and not fired. It is on an early male/female yellow capco. The lettering is all outlined with a thin chrome or mirrored outline.
