TIRE PUMP, Aerite - TF-221
Aerite tire pump

This is another slightly different style tire pump supplied with early model MGA. This one is known to have come from a December 31, 1958 MGA. The cast baseplate is slightly wider at the square shoulders, and the heavy wire fold-out feet are formed all in one plane.

Addendum 22 September, 2019:
There was this ad page in a period magazine (The Autocar, 18 July 1958) showing what appears to be the same pump labled as "The Aerite" car hand pump, touted as "standard equipment on the MGA".
