These are some of the metal body globes available at Iowa Gas last week.

Aaron Hop





The Standard globe pictured here was used by Standard of California and is fairly uncommon. Sometime down the the road we'll do a Standard Oil "Globe of the Month" and sort out which Standard Oil Company used which globes.

Shown in this batch of photos is a very rare 11 1/2" Gasoline globe and a new discovery Crown Gasoline globe on a 15" body. This lens reportedly came out of California many years ago and nothing else was known about it. The last photo shows a unique pair of cast Tydol lenses. These lenses are quite thick and heavy.

This Gorilla Battery globe is perhaps my favorite metal body globe that was at the show. The graphics on this 16 1/2" globe are great and it was priced at a fraction of what it would have been if it only said "gasoline" instead of "battery."

I'm very fortunate to have seventeen original metal frame globes in my collection. How about five different Shell globes to start with.

Great globes guys! The group of Buffalo globes is amazing, to say the very least. Some of the Shell globes shared are down right scarce, and make an awesome set. Thanks to everyone who has shared so far and lets see some more!

Here is a photo of a rarely seen Big Chief on a 15" low profile body. This is the original body to the lenses and still has the original paint in very good condition making it an absolutely spectacular piece!
