Alex need a bucket grin wink

No kidding on the bucket. I am probably biased what with living in Montana, but for a small market the Montana Oil and gas companies put out some nice looking globes. If I had more disposable income I would like to put together a set of all Montana's lenses. The Grizzly, Montana Chief, the Arro and the Hart (at least I think there was a Hart) globes would make a major dent in anyone's retirement fund. Now that's a bucket list.

Mick:

Didga ever notice the 'artistic' mistake on that version of the Laureleaf lenses?

Take a good look and post it if you see it.

HuskyBob:

You mean this one:


This is one of my early lenses. These were manufactured by Mike Slama long before I had my own production capabilities.

They have been 'Sold Out' for years.

I did two different versions of this image: Montana Chief and Washington Chief.
I still need to do the other two versions - Idaho Chief and Oregon Chief.

You got it Ryan!

The actual artwork is correct - they just screwed up cutting the screens.
