I have an antique Marvel kerosene pump for sale. I got it from the family that owned an old country store in West Georgia. It has a blackish color mixed with a greenish color, and a little gold color around the top.
The front of the tank reads “Fireproof Oil For lamps and Stoves”.
It has a Marvel badge with serial number 100728.
It appears to be complete, and it’s certainly all original. It has a wooden handle with the word “Marvel Pump”. It has a dipstick. It has a rotating piece that says 2 qts, 1 gal, and 1 qt. It rotates to align a stop with a pipe that raises as the fuel is pumped so that the customer gets the correct amount.
The tank is approximately 38" high and 22.5" in diameter. The total height is approximately 54". I’m guessing the tank is 50 gallon or thereabouts.
