79x100 Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 If he's purchased it, then he knows the value, doesn't he? Or at least he knows what he was prepared to pay for it... I paid £20 for a 1943 dated AM Duplex Major at Beaulieu a year ago. I was simply fed up with breaking modern throwaway foot pumps. They're quite straightforward to put new washers in and very nice to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinN Posted January 9, 2015 Author Share Posted January 9, 2015 Been giving the once over. It is dated 1944 and has the crow foot stamped into the base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauren Child Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Kismet pumps are shown in the WOT manuals, but I'd imagine they were used with a wide range of vehicles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
