Primarily Petroliana Shop Talk Forums Shop Talk Petroliana Forums Showcase and Stories, Petroliana POTM "Pump of the Month" May 2021

Hi guys, hope you all had a great April. We had tons of participation last month, and it was awesome seeing all those pumps in the wild! Thank you! For this POTM (Pump Of The Month) I am going to do some of my favorite pumps. These pumps have Art Deco tops, square faces, and beautiful skins. These pumps were produced by the Southwest Pump Company from Bonham, Texas. These one of a kind models include the Southwest 512-c, 612, 712-CS, 712, 712-CSP, 812 CS-G, and 90. More information about each model.
