      What you have looks like an early 1900's Bowser gas pump, its missing the faucet that would come out the side but is still cool and collectible.

      I agree, this is from about 1905. I owned a couple of these years ago. There should be a counter near the top on one side, also a lever midway on the pump to select pint, quart, or gallon delivery. These were usually called curb pumps. This should have a round BOWSER brass tag near the top.
