I was thinking about displaying my pump in a way that both sides are visible. Anyone ever done one side in one brand and the other in a second brand? Or I suppose you could do 4 doors for the same pump and one each, giving you flexibility. Same with the globe.

Reason I ask is that I've held off on ordering decals since I can't choose a brand! I'm torn between 3 and can't decide.

Do the pump in one brand, then buy extra doors and do one each in the other brands. Next hang the individual doors on the wall. It'll have the same effect but will be more professional. Paul www.severngaspumps.com

I think it would probably look funny to have more than one brand on the same pump. I like Paul's suggestion.

Apply decals to Magnetic vinyl [truck signs], change when tired of looking at 1 brand & switch globe.

I have see a few short farm pumps done up in two different brands and they actually didn't look bad, but I wouldn't want to "turn around" my full size pump whenever I wanted a "change in scenery". Brady

Like Dick says, magnetic signs work real well with globe changes.

Turning a pump is easy w/ a Lazy Susan [Tara or Nicole etc!] type base or mounted wheels.

do it in one, when your tired of it, sell it, get another pump, repeat as necessary....or hoard one of every brand produced....
