This month I wanted to do a visible. I chose the G&B 176 family. This includes the 176, 177, 178, and 179. These visibles seem to be very common around my area. They are fantastic looking classic visibles in my opinion. Everyone should own at least one someday! Time to post some pictures if you have them!

-G&B 176: 1925-1938. Nozzle control, 10 gallon, hand operated. There was also a square version of this pump.
-G&B 176: 1926. 2nd version. Pump handle is slightly different.
-G&B 176: 1928. 3rd version. Again pump handle is different being cast iron instead of steel.
-G&B 177: 1925. Adjustable stop, 10 gallon or 5 gallon. Long access door.
-G&B 178: 1926. 10 gallon visible with long access door.
-G&B 179: 1927. Mechanical measure, 10 gallon. Long access door.

Again, credit the above information to Jack Sim and his book.
