I believe this is an early air compressor exhibited at the most excellent Steam Giants of Brede Waterworks museum, Rye, East Sussex.
The museum has many exhibits including a preserved nuclear bunker which would have operated as a water distribution control centre in the event of thermo-nuclear conflict.
Seen adjacent to the parking lot at Almaden Quicksilver County Park. This is among assorted mercury mining tools and equipment set out on display.
A sign indicates that this compressor was a gasoline powered model from Gardner-Denver Company based in Quincy, IL. Note that the tires have deteriorated yet the wheels remain.

I thought the chimney of the Compressor House at the Geevor Mine really stood out against the blue sky. A very interesting place to visit. Pendeen Lighthouse is in the background.

The monster sleeps in the basement. Sometimes it wakes up and makes an infernal noise for a minute or two. Then silence again.

In the Compressor Room for the big Airship Hanger at the Tillamook Air Museum. This would have been used to fill the Airships with Helium, during World War II.

The Teesside works of the BSC employed this extraordinary mobile compressor loco using compressed air transmission. Identified as 'MC1', it was one of three converted in-house, using the frames of former steelworks four-coupled locos built by Peckett and Hawthorn Leslie. 'MC1' was a 1958 conversion from Peckett 'W4' Class 0-4-0 saddle tank (W/No.668 built in 1897) originally supplied new to Bolckow Vaughan & Co, South Bank Steel, and was still in use as a compressor on 28th October 1977.
