This Standard Oil White Crown Visible Top Gas Pump sits just inside the entrance to the CB Potts Big Horn Brewery and Restaurant. From the ID plate on the back of the pump it is a Circa 1940's Pump.
It is nicely restored but lacks the classic Milk glass Crown that is the Icon for the Standard Oil White Crown Gas brand. Each grade of gas had a different colored crown on the top of the pump.
None the less, it is a nice piece of Gasoline Heritage.
For the History Buff here is a
