Hi! My name is Jack and I recently purchased a round Mobile Pump and am looking for the plastic lighted top that says Mobile. Also, I need the glass for the back side of the pump. If you now where I can find this, I would appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Jack

Jack, Welcome to Oldgas. FYI, the spelling is Mobil, not Mobile.
Regards, Jim
I collect gas pump salt and pepper shakers and the plastic coin banks made by AVSCO.

The white plastic tops didn’t originally say Mobil on them. Sounds like you have one of the round stainless steel pumps.

Was the Mobile branding a water decal or sticker?

Those tops are rare. i have one for my pump. I was looking at a sign company to re pop them. They were able to make the piece but not the ridge where the top fits into the weather strip. I never went any further then that.

Same here. I had a plastics company give me an estimate on tooling for making these domes. It was cost prohibitive.
The Mobil graphics on the face plates were originally screened on the painted white face. I restored mine with vinyl graphics on freshly painted white faces.

Tops were white, no lettering.
Looking for photos, etc from 60s era Shell-A-Rama gas station and Pal's Diner, Rt. 17 Mahwah, NJ & US or state highway signs, shields, route markers

I also wish we had a source for replacement tops. I would buy several. I even have an oil can cabinet that needs one.
