Those pumps were used in a national ad campaine for Kawasaki motorcycles. Everybody in the US has probably tried to buy them.

Hey DB, I might be pump huntin' in Fillmore this week. (wednesday?) Should I go by and offer $200 for the lot? lol.
Why didn't you buy these! From the pictures I have seen of your stuff you have PLENTY of pumps... you said no to THESE!
Those are nice, I am working on a deal for an A-38 right now. It does not look like that!
Question, I saw a Wayne/National pump at an antique shop, it was unrestored and in pretty good shape. (not great) It is the one that says wayne but looks like a short A-38. The cool thing was it's color, it was porcelain and mint green. The glass was all faded and clear, what company was that used for?
BTW- they were asking $1200 for it, that is why I did not get it.
Info?

What you seen jeff was an A-62 , national or tokhiem, theres a guy out of nevada thats been trying to sell one for a year , first at turlock then at freds for 850.00 and he takes it home every time, now steve Castelli has the national one for 400.00 with the add glass which I like better than the tokhiem,
but at the action in Lodi a few years back they were going from 450.00 to 1,000.00

The only mint green that Seaside used was back in 1898 when they started as a water pump company . their pumps were green and there salesmans samples were, green ,yellow , and red, when they became a oil producer that part of the company used the blue ,in this blury picture is two water pumps , sales man samples , and a horse shoe contest tropy from Seaside 1927-1934, sorry but this is a better picture, I only had 1 salesmans pump at this time ,

Dwaine, it seems you have a little of everything! (trophys! what the?) Too cool. If it wasn't Seaside then who used green porcelain? I thought I saw an old Flying A that was green, could that be it?
Dick... where you at? One of you guys knows! Hey Dick, while on the way to Fillmore, want me to stop and pick up any pumps you don't want anymore? You know they are old and heavy, best let me take them off your hands.

I want it! Hubba that is the coolest pump! You can always find good glass for it, saw some on ebay that looked NOS a few weeks ago.
You should really think about sending that down here, trade you a gas cart
