Hi Everyone:

I would like to know if someone can provide me with or direct me to information about this one sided, 8" porcelain Texaco Curved Pump Plate.

I believe it to be authentic (confirmation would be nice too😁 ) and have tried to find information but so far I've been unsuccessful. The Tour With Texaco (1997) book I have shows a 15" Curved Pump Plate and all the 8" pump plates shown are flat. There is no mention of an 8" curved plate.

Thank you in advance for any help and your expertise👍

Looks to be real ,I have two original ones on my fry 17
Both curved and 8" in diameter .

Thanks! It looks so much better on a pump!!👍

Any idea on when they were made/used? Is your pump the style of pumps they were intended to be used on?

1920s ,the pump I have is all original with pricer ,fry tag and the two Texaco plates and a embossed Texaco globe.

Thanks ALSS72. We used to make quality things that lasted a lifetime or more. So sad to see that era appears to be gone forever.

By the way, do you know when they stopped making them? I assume it was when they went to the box style pumps but I don't know that for a fact and have no idea when they did that either.
