When the Tokheim Pump Co. went bankrupt all of the old pumps that were on display in the factory buildings, and all the literature (going back to almost 1900) was purchased by a group of men from Ft. Wayne. I was there just after everything happened. Both the pumps and most of the literature is now in the ADC Museum in Auburn. I was told a section of the museum has been devoted to the pump companies from Ft. Wayne. I donated a old Bowser pump, it may be on display.
