This grouping of gas station memorabilia includes two gas pumps built by Gilbert & Barker Manufacturing of West Springfield, Massachusetts, an Eco air meter, and a station lighter. All four pieces were recently refurbished with Mobilgas branding, and they are displayed on an island base. The pumps are fitted with illuminated globes, hoses, nozzles, and three-function registers. This lot is now offered by the selling dealer at no reserve in Malone, New York.
Per the seller, the refinishing process of the 1000-series gas pumps included disassembly, sandblasting, and repainting using PPG materials. Hand-painted pinstriping accents the doors. Replacement decals, glass, globes, hoses, and wiring were then installed. The double three-function registers indicate sale price in dollars, gallons delivered, and cost per gallon in cents. One pump is marked for regular gasoline, while the other is marked for premium. The pumps are six feet tall, and the internals have been removed.
A station lighter post and shade are also included; it stands 7 feet 6 inches tall, and it is around 8 feet tall when positioned on the island.
The Eco Model 97 air meter was also refinished, and it is accented by a Mobil Pegasus logo. The internals are retained, but the pump is not calibrated to function.
A white island with a black mat and red hand-lettering is also included. It measures around 8 feet wide by 37 inches deep.
