I'm drooling at the sight of that North Star globe Chris! You probably want to retain for future project eh?...
I'm not aware of any inserts being reproduced either, do you know?
Beautiful workmanship on your pumps!
Cheers to all.

Sorry Mobil 100. Eyesight isn't what it used
to be! I was admiring your pumps, and eyes
locked in to previous post by Chris.
Congratulations on your great restos.
As mentioned above I would greatly appreciate knowing of a source for globe and inserts for North Star visible restoration.

The G&B 2177 is the Canadian (Imperial) version of the U.S. G&B 177. G&B just added the 2 in front of the model number for any pump being sent to Canada.
