This bonnet of this model still retains most of the original look of the hydrant patented
by Eddy Valve in 1889!
Early hydrants had a bonnet that had the same diameter as the upper barrel flange. And this back view shows that "CLOW" was cast on the back as well as the front. |

Current manufacture hydrants have a bonnet "skirt" that overhang the upper barrel flange giving a more "finished" look to the hydrant. And this back view shows that "CLOW" has been removed from the back. |
