Antique Questions - G

I am currently restoring a gas pump, and am looking for a couple of things. I was wondering if you could help or could refer me to someone.

We have a Wayne visible gas pump we are thinking about selling.  We were wondering if you could give us an approximate value.  It has a crack in the cylinder that is very hard to see.  It is complete with internal pump etc.

I am trying to locate a manual for on old Gilson rototiller.

I have two Gorham "Sweet Inspiration" Dolls that I had purchased for my mother.  One of them is "Lollipop".  Could you give me an idea what these dolls might be worth.

Ask about parts for your pump.

Your gas pump should have a model number on the name plate. That would help to date and price it.  Your pump is in the $1,500 - $3,000 range.  A good source which you might check for current price information is www.oldgas.com

Gas Engine Magazine
P.O. Box 328
Lancaster, PA 17608-0328

It is $33.00 for 12 issues and you can advertise in it for $.35 per word (minimum $4.00 per ad).  There is a probably a reader out there who has what you are looking for.

The Gorham "Sweet Inspiration" Dolls were produced in the mid-1980s.  The last value I found for it listed it at $195.  Current values may be slightly higher and the box does add some value. I think your dolls are probably in the $175. - $195. price range. The magazine, "Doll Reader", is a source to check for prices on these and other new collectible dolls on the secondary market.
