I am the author of the Gas Pump Bible book. This last book is all gas pumps but the first two books identified a number of oil tank pumps. I have a large collection of gas pump companies literature and probably have pictures and brochures for you pump. If you have a model number, just go to this page of my website and look up the pump: http://petrolianacollectibles.com/gas%20pump%20literature.htm

If you don't know the model number either post a picture here or send me one by email: jhsim@petrocollect.com

This is probably a 52-B introduced in 1908. A picture is shown on this page of my website: http://petrolianacollectibles.com/bowser%20pumps.htm

The Model Number should be on that curved tag that is on the pump itself. If it is not a 52-B, post the Model number here or look it up at the web page above.
