Primarily Petroliana Shop Talk Forums Shop Talk Petroliana Forums General Petroliana Discussion ID for this pump? Help needed!

After talking with Mike at Vic's 66, he suggested asking all of you on here to see if anyone can identify the maker. At first, my father in law thought it was a Wayne, but Mike assured us it isn't and he couldn't identify it either. He stated probably a one off from a small company. My father in law actually used this pump and 2 others as a kid, out on the farm. The pump itself has a date of 1924, but no other markings. After wanting to restore them for over 40 years, we finally finished the first one. Thanks for any help you can give. Thanks, Randy.

Very cool piece. Early pumps like that were often small regional builds, so no markings isn’t unusual. You might try posting detailed closeups; sometimes the casting or hardware gives it away.

Looks like a Clear Vision from Wichita.

Thank you Daveb! Now we know. We think it’s Clear Vision from the teens, because the newer ones we found have different upgraded components. We are starting in our 2nd restoration which right now appears to be a Bennet. It’s tough when there aren’t any plates. I may post that one if we can’t figure it out for sure. It’s a little rougher but we have the glass! Thanks again.
