1.0 out of 5 stars An Ilustrated Guide to Gas Pumps, October 5, 2005

Frances "Lois" (Casco, WI) - See all my reviews

This review is from: An Illustrated Guide to Gas Pumps (Paperback)

We were very disappointed with the book. We were hoping it would have pictures of old gas pumps and how they should be painted. All it shows is old gas pumps but most are black and white and seem to be drawings instead of actual pictures.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: An Illustrated Guide to Gas Pumps (Paperback)

While I would like to see more real pics, the drawings do a fine job of identifying the various pumps. Think the glossary could be expanded to include more terms. All in all, I am glad to have the book in my library.

3.0 out of 5 stars Pretty Good, September 13, 2002

Savage - See all my reviews

This review is from: An Illustrated Guide to Gas Pumps (Paperback)

Pretty good reference on types of pumps made but little info or detail about them. Not much help for restoration work but does help when buying pumps by phone. Pictures of restored pumps would have been a big plus.
