It will look nice, BUT the GOLD CROWN was not used on pumps till EARLY 50's.

A white pump with gold trim would look nice. Repro round gold crown logo vinyl decals are available.

Do the visible, I've seen more than a few done with a gold crown. They look great in white with a little gold and polished brass.

Just don't invite the pump police over.

I'm doing a clock face with Red Crown lenses, in a repo red ripple body. I don't think the Red Crown lenses ever came in a ripple body and I don't care, It's going to look great.
