O.T.K., is that the company name? The other writing on yours definitely looks
like it's from behind the iron curtain. Mine has no writing anywhere.

Yes Tommy, O.T.K is the company. Mine came from Bulgaria.

Hi Tommy,

@Woe is me
Nice acquisition, I saw that one & resisted very much adding it to its round sibling!
They are very rare & made in Eastern Europe.

The functional style is that of a ship's chain pump, but I don't believe I've ever seen it used on a steam toy accessory before either.

I have never seen this style of well and pump.  It's a nice design.

Any idea of the maker?

I have never seen a drive model well with this kind of pump before. So I got
it from The Netherlands. Can anyone shed some light onto who made it, it has
no markings of its own. It works great, has a steady flow, and cranks easily.
I don't have to hold it, you'll see in the video at the end.

Can you identify this?
