We have arranged that future pumps are to be delivered with a chromium plated barrel and mahogany finished handle. We have examined pumps with this finish and they are certainly a decided improvement. In the meantime we are still awaiting a sample from the makers embodying an improved type of handle and foot grips. We are also arranging for the jack and handle to have an improved finish.
