(Please see further down for the large version - I screwed up and posted the wrong large version and don't know how to change it)

An old Phillipps gasoline pump that was in front of Jim's father's old car dealership in Ottawa, Kansas.
Jim has many memories of pumping gas here as a teenager

Sandy, the large version is excellent representation of this old single pumper. Can't tell if it was labeled "Regular" or "Ethyl" from the photos. More then likely as a single unt it was "Regular". It would be hard to name all the brand names that have past over the years, a bit like brands of autos maybe.
