Hello everyone welcome to October!
Fall is a great time to find and buy some good pumps! People are out cleaning up their yard, buildings, farm yards, whatever it might be people tend to sell a lot of stuff during the fall. It is a great time to get out there and being home some awesome pumps! I have always had awesome luck finding pumps in the fall.
For this pump of the month I want you all to post pictures of pumps found in the wild. I love doing this post at least once a year because there is nothing better than seeing pictures of pumps exactly how you found them.
This is my most recent purchase and it fits into this category perfectly.
This is a rare Wichita visible. Notice how the base, top, and skins are different from the Clearvision “Arrow” which is very similar. I was able to get it bought and bring it home.
Enjoy this month and let’s see some great photos of pumps how you found them!
Thank you all! Happy Halloween 🎃

Found on farms. Thanks Konnor for doing this post. Some of my finds over the years. I am horrible about always remembering to take pictures.

Chased the visible for 6 years. The station was bought by a family member and he wanted the pumps gone.

According to the Gas Pump Blue Book, there were only 1461 Wayne 866 Narrow/Small base pumps made in 1936-38. None made after 1938.
I didn't even realize it was a narrow body till after I had it home for a couple days and started to clean it up.
... and as found Tokheim 36B

Brought these home a couple years back.
One was in a chicken coup for decades and the other was in use on the farm.

Half of an a Eco-Meter twin I found just down the road from me where is had been leaning for 40+ years, and a single Eco-Meter as found in a small town in Quebec, still connected to the tank, the lady wanted a new hot tub for it so I bought her one.

It's just not really a party without a hot tub.
