Vintage Foot Tyre Pump
This is a vintage foot tyre pump, offered as a lot for collectors of vintage motoring and garage equipment. It is a foot-operated design with a pair of grey metal pedal arms that fold out from a central body. The pump has a brown metal cylinder, a textured brown foot pad and a black rubber hose, which is present and coiled as shown. The main base bar carries a red painted finish along part of its length. The maker is not identified on the piece.
Condition and Originality
The pump shows the wear expected of an item of its age. The metal arms and cylinder carry visible surface marks, with rust-coloured areas and sections where the paint has worn away. The foot pad shows signs of use. The original configuration of arms, cylinder, pad and hose appears to be intact, which contributes to its character as an unrestored period piece. Its patinated finish and original parts may appeal to collectors of vintage garage tools, workshop displays and classic motoring memorabilia, or to buyers seeking an authentic piece of roadside and garage history.
