I believe this is a double 851 from what I've been told, but can't tell from this pic. Anyone recognize the pump? I would love to talk with the owner if possible.
Thanks!

If it only has the two dials showing it is a 852. If it has two more on the other side it is a 854, 855 or 856. The cabinets on all four of these pumps are identical according to factory literature. The only difference seems to be the nozzle.

I know it's tough to see in this picture but look close Jack...it doesn't have a one piece top like an 852,3,4,etc. Its two separate tops. That's why I'd like to talk to the owner.

You are correct, and looking close I also realize that it is two pumps with space between them, assuming they are on the same base. Also not in the book, if you find out who owns the picture ask if I can use it. Who ever took the picture owns the picture.

Looking at all the Cities Service cans above it, we should check Kevin Frith's collection to see if it's his....LOL


Thanks
