Gaskell & Chambers Dalex counter beer fountain 6128/9, 1954

            Gaskell & Chambers, of  Dalex Works, Coleshill St, Birmingham, were once Britain's biggest bar fitters and manufacturers of beer engines, handpumps and pub cellar equipment. They are now part of IMI Cornelius after many takeovers and mergers - IMI being at one time Imperial Metal Industries, the Birmingham division of ICI. A few scans from catalogue pages in the 1930s and 1950s. The trade name "Dalex" may hark back to Dale End.

The counter fountains, known as 'tall fonts', were primarily used in Scottish pubs.
