Do you think the American Pickers will buy that pump? Mike & Frank are always looking for "Rusted/Rusty Gold" any kind of Mantique they can make a buck on.

I love these old things. Reminds me of my Gramps who's long gone now. He installed em in Missori and in other places in the Midwest

Anyone else immediately think of Citgo?

The oilfields?

Perhaps a slingshot, an M-80 equivalent, and a box canyon filled with something very dangerous?

If not, I understand.

Either way, nice piece and catchy title.

Thanks! I shot that pump with at least 5 different film cameras/film combinations and a digital! This was the best one!
