Saw this picture on google and thought the lock was cool.
Are there a lot of these still floating around or are they pretty rare?
Did other gas companies have their own locks like American, Tokeheim, or Rush?


I found a Fry Mae West 117!

I've got two Tokheim locks on my 36B showcase pump.

There are Pump & Oil Company padlocks. But I don't agree this was Made for WAYNE PUMP & TANK. They would have used the same Logo as the company name.

I have an Opaco lock if it fits in this category. Little on the rough side but still cool. I've seen this name on lubster lids.

The locks show up every so often, what is scarce is the keys.

DB, I believe the Wayne logo shown on the lock above is Wayne Pump Co., very early they used this logo. Are you going to make me go into my literature to show it to you?
