Does anybody have a nice condition top cap as I am referring to it that has the little returns on it and sits on the top below the gold globe holder? Thanks

Kris-- There are a few things for a 36B that seem to be in short supply and most of them are attached to the top. Very rarely can you find the tin cap that you need and why aren't there any original globe holders available? The little clips that hold the ad glass and any of the 4 bars below the ad glass, are like gold also! If you find any of these parts, you're very lucky as they don't come across the stage every day and are about as scarce as "GOLD" like you said!

Kevin, That's how some vendors make $$. By Not offering some parts you have to buy the Sand Cast Repop Top!

THIS MAY BE A STUPID QUESTION BUT I'M CONFUSED.
ARE YOU LOOKING FOR THE BLOCK OFF PLATE THAT YOU WOULD USE IF YOUR NOT GOING TO USE A GLOBE?

I think he is looking for the 9.5" by 12" cover on the top of the main top assembly. The globe holder or block off plate is attached to this cover.

Lee, The Globe Block-off plate is approx. 4" SQ.

When you Don't Know, There are NO STUPID QUESTIONS, BUT There are quite a few that ARE CONFUSED!
