I hope someone will be able to help me out here. I'm starting to work on a clear vision 23 visible pump and need a pic of a complete one. I looked in Jacks 1st edition book but there only is a 22 and it doesn't look like mine and that one is air operated.

Here is what I have and any help will greatly be appreciated, thanks!

It appears the H-23 is a hand operated pump. My Gas Pump book shows the H-22 which is the air operated pump. It is on page 117.
I would say the picture in my book looks very much like your picture, your pump just has a handle. If you supply a picture of the pump with the cylinder attached and the bonnet on the pump, this will help in identifying the pump.

I do have a copy of the small sales piece of literature available, basically it shows your pump but without the handle. It is the same picture as in my books.

Thanks Jack, I did see the 22 in your book. The thing I didn't see on the H22 were these pieces at the top of the skins. Was just curious are these original to the pump?

I have a Clear Vision air operated pump and it has those cleats on the top of the skins as well.

Do you happen to have a picture of the correct top for this pump? I had found a pump like this from the cylinder base down (different access door) and it does have the little cleats.

This is the top that came with the pump, there is a plate that sits on top of the cylinder that this mounts to. The plate is in storage, when I get it I'll post pics. It sort of looks like my clear vision 203 but not as high of a curve.

Thank you for the pictures, is the top cast iron or Tin/steel?

The top globe holder is cast, the middle section is pressed steel and the bottom ring is cast. The three pieces are held together with screws.

I enlarged my picture, the cleats are there. Picture not that good.
