This Gilbert & Barker ‘Visible’ petrol bowser is a magnificent example of early 20th century engineering, beautifully presented in the iconic green and yellow livery of British Petroleum (BP).
Commonly referred to as a ‘visible’ pump because it allowed the motorist to see the quality and quantity of the fuel before it was gravity-fed into the tank, this piece is the ultimate trophy for any petroliana enthusiast and is perfect for the mancave.
This particular unit, with its vibrant BP branding, captures the spirit of the 1920s and ‘30s roadside perfectly.
It stands as a towering piece of industrial art that would anchor any serious collection or high-end automotive space.
