I'm currently doing a wayne visible and these are on the cylinder base. I have not noticed them on other pumps. The one I have is a 515 but the cylinder in 10x36 or a " tall ten"? Anyone familiar with these tags?

EJ,
I have seen these tags on other "Stretch Ten" visibles exclusively made for Ohio. Not sure if you're aware but Ohio passed a law back in the 1920s that instructed pump manufacturers to make their cylinders taller. Citizens back then felt that they were being cheated on the amount of gas if the sun would shine on the glass thinking the liquid would rise just like a thermometer. Good luck with your pump and protect that cylinder, they are very hard to replace!

That's very interesting. I picked this pump in Columbus. Thanks for the information!
