Thanks Adrian. There's enough wiggle room in there for me to at least
try the restore. Linus file command tells me
db.dump: PostgreSQL custom database dump - v1.13-0
That dump was from a version 10 server. Any guess at how that "v1.13-0"
relates to the server version?
It doesn't, it's just a more-or-less-magic identifier for the dump
file's format version, with no connection to any user-visible
release number. What you should try is
pg_restore -f - db.dump | head
which should provide some comments telling you the originating
server version and pg_dump version.

OK, back to reality: version 10 dump.
The output of from head command is very different that Adrian shows but
I'm still left giving pg_restore(14) a shot. Getting older server will
be challenging.
Much appreciated,
