Hey Guys, I need some help with a new find. I have a McBeth Lumite A glass cylinder that measures 11.5" inside diameter and 27" tall. It's etched with Made in USA, McBeth Lumite A. It has the metal seat and is in near perfect condition. I also have the box it was shipped in, but it's in pretty bad shape. It's very difficult finding information on this cylinder so I hope some of you pros can help me out. I'd like to know what pumps it was made for and an approximate value. Picture attached.
Thanks very much!

Made by Corning Glass Works. Except for Fry that started by making Glass then bought into the Guarantee Pump Co., I don't have any other info that pump companies made their own glass cyl., visi or flat glass.

Thanks Dick. I'm going to list it on eBay and oldgas Sunday so I hope I can get a handle on the value by then. I still can't find too much information on McBeths that sold in the past couple of years. Any help with that will be appreciated.
