Time for a new Globe of the Month! This edition will be featuring globes with the Ethyl logo.

I'll start it off with a couple of bird globes to transition us from "animal" globes to Ethyl globes. The Martin on the right is quite common and turns up regularily. The one on the left with the slogan "The finest Ethyl of all" is fairly scrace. I have only seen a couple of other examples.

Why not take a few minutes and share some of your Ethyl logo globes. Thanks!

Lonnie

John, those are some really nice globes you've got there. I can only dream, someday, maybe?
Here is the only two I have for now.
This one is not mine yet, but if the deal go's though it will be in my collection soon.
Looking good on the ethyl globes!

Here are a few Ethyl logo globes from the Jim Fox Auction that Matthews Auctions held a few years back.

Take a few minutes tonight and share your Ethyl globes with the rest of the Oldgas Community.

Thanks!

I don't have a lot of globes - but I do specialize in globes that have the 'ETHYL' logo on them.
Especially before the Ethyl Corporation got better at controling the Ethyl image.

Early Ethyl lenses would have different numbers of rays, different colors of rays and the banner at the bottom of the logo was whatever the lens artist wanted it to be. I find the differences to be great for the collector.

Anyway, I'll post one at a time and spread them out since this thread seems to have slowed down considerably.

Here is a 15" version of the Red Pepper Ethyl image.

Okay, I posted my smallest Ethyl logo - now here is my bigest Ethyl logo globe.



These Sparkol lenses are on an original screw-base narrow Milkglass body.
These lenses feature the later Ethyl logo.

I'll post another one or two tomorrow.

Hello . . . McFLy - anybody out there!

Well, I still have Ethyl Globes to share. LOL

Here is a nice Superior Ethy Gasoline globe. This is a 'Banded Body'. both lenses are near mint.



Later . . .

Jim
Posted By: Jarvis Re: Globe of the Month(s) April/May- Ethyl logo globes - Sat May 01 2010 08:35 PM
Jim, I am watching!
By the way be careful putting notched lenses in a banded body like the Superior because the metal rings have a notch at the top like 15" metal globes do on the bottom and you can crack a lens.
Posted By: T-way Re: Globe of the Month(s) April/May- Ethyl logo globes - Sat May 01 2010 08:37 PM
John:

Thanks - but I checked these lenses when I installed them. I don't remember if there is actually a notch in these bands or not - all I remember is I could spin the lenses easily once I did install them.

Later . . .

Jim
Posted By: Jarvis Re: Globe of the Month(s) April/May- Ethyl logo globes - Sat May 01 2010 09:53 PM
Jim, All the banded bodies i have seen had a metal "bump" at the top. I would look at it myself to make sure you don't break a cool lens.
Posted By: T-way Re: Globe of the Month(s) April/May- Ethyl logo globes - Sun May 02 2010 07:12 PM
Here's one for a rainy Sunday afternoon.

Super Rose Ethyl - one of the only lenses you'll ever see with a 'Script' font on it. Most script fonts look really crappy when you try to set them onto a curve.



Later . . .

Jim
Great posts so far! I have been busy the last few weeks and have not added much to this post. Thanks for picking up the slack Jim. With your love of the Ethyl logo globes this post was made for you!

Here are a few Ethyl globes that I have photograghed at auctions over the past few years. The Bonded and the Crown are both uncommon globes and seldom offered for sale.

Souperhigh (aka as Maurice Campbell) sent me photos of a bunch of his Ethyl globes and I will be a adding a few here and there over the next couple of weeks.

Keep those photos coming.

Thanks!
