I noticed this vintage gas pump outside the Gold Hill Historical Museum, along with other preserved machines on public display.

In looking at this gas pump's painted color, I would guess that it sold either Texaco, Mohawk or Mobilgas. I could find no decals of the company that sold gas from this pump. There would normally be a circular fixture on top of the pump with the gas company's logo and lit up at night but it has been removed (most likely as a separate collectible). I'm also guessing this gas pump was used during the 1930s and 1940s.
Gasoline Brand: Texaco, Mohawk or Mobilgas are the most likely candidates

Reproduction: no

Location: Outside
