Description

Description from L.A. Brown's 1959 catalog: "This simple type of vacuum pump was listed for sale in almost every house catalogue a century and more ago. It probably was the one most commonly found in the early laboratories to illustrate certain principles of natural philosophy. It is one of six vacuum pumps in the Transylvania collection. This particular pump has no identifying name of its maker."
