Eshaver Posted April 22, 2010 Posted April 22, 2010 O K , First Unitarian church in Richmond Virginia asked mne to do these as a favor to help out with fundrasing . I did them for that purpose so if yer in town , bid them up Plulleeeezzzzzeeeee...... yes kids , it's a glass vase turned upside down too........ The visable is a Bowser C- 117 from 1920, the kerosene pump in the middle is a John Wood 25gallon and the Clock dial is a Penn- O -meter from Pennsylvania Pump co -1932 . The visable has a small light that illuminateds the viasabile tank . The kerosene dispenser holds the switch and the Clock dial does the electrical connections . Ed Shaver
Wayne Buck Posted April 22, 2010 Posted April 22, 2010 Wow, Ed!!! They look AMAZING! I wish I was in town so I could bid on them!
Sixties Sam Posted April 24, 2010 Posted April 24, 2010 Ed, you are the master of a rare art form! I've never known anyone who makes models of gas pumps. They're kind of a forgotten piece of automotive history. I'm glad you're keepin' them alive! Great work! Sam
Railfreak78 Posted April 24, 2010 Posted April 24, 2010 I thought by now we were supposed to be able to beam around the world and other planets. It's 2010 I only say this cause I'd go bid on these beauties in a heart beat! Great work Ed
Peter Lombardo Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 Really nice work Ed. Your chosen subjects are not an item that I would think to model, but you sure are good at it. I am just old enough to remember seeing a few of those around in my youth. The upside down vase is a pretty slick idea as a cover for them. Great job as usual...good luck with the fund raise.
