Have a couple pumps to restore and my client wants to know when approx. the white cloth hoses were replaced by the black rubber hoses???anyone know about when this happened???..also which hoses are correct for clocks and art deco pumps (Wayne 60)??? also..is it more accurate to put vinyl or water release decals on clocks and art deco than the porcelian signs???..tks in advance...Warren

Basicly, the visibles had cloth, then the change over to rubber for the clockfaces.

Depending on the company, some used signs & decals. Most restores will use decals, signs can be $$$$.
