I have looked in a few libraries for everything you can imagine relating to these kinds of pumps. The problem I am having is getting specific information regarding the type of pumps distrubuted and who manufactured them in an effort to determine which pumps are the most common.

This post was also intended to get first hand knowledge from people who might have past knowledge of these pumps, be it world travels, visits to public parks, amish towns, etc.
Okay, so I had this vague memory of water pump on a hike I went on at some local park that is now considered historical. Unfortunately, I named the folder "Walk October 9, 2002" so I don't know the name of the park. I took two pictures of it, one a full shot , the other a close up on the spigot There is some more writing on the bottom of the pump, and a patent number on the handle, if you would like me to send you full sized copies of the photos, just let me know (they're big files, so I wouldn't send them without your say-so).
