Hey guys,
I am a new member here from down in sunny central Florida. I recently "found" this pump on our family farm up in south Georgia. I can see from the brass plaque attached its a Fry Model 17 and from looking at the number of gallons available, I guess it is a 10 gallon pump. That said it looks different from any that I have seen on the internet. Especially on the top where the globe would attach. There is actually a piece of safety glass there ( the kind with the wire in it). I have no other pumps and am very new to these. I would appreciate any information about this pump.
Thank you,
G

The Fry 17 was 5 gallons. 117 was 10. It looks like your pump may be a conversion pump, meaning modified to 10 gallons. Measure the diameter where the glass would fit. typical 17 is 10" diameter cylinder. Typical 117 was 13 5/8 cylinder and the conversion either 12 or 12 1/2.

as for the top, it's missing the bonnet or dome.

Morgan, Thank you for the info. Was that conversion pretty common? And what era would this pump approx date to
Thank you

Looks like a Wayne conversion. Very common. 20's -30's. I have actually seen them in use as late as 80's. Dave
