Mike Slama and Buck did an awesome job on these, got my set in the mail today. The picture doesn't do them justice. (I used Buck's picture, I didn't have a body) Pretty cool neon/jewel body also. I had the art done localy for the pump decal that T-Way did (turned out awesome) about a year or so ago, now I have a globe to go with it. Brian

Thanks Ohio, Not sure yet, Larry Ivy is making me a jeweled globe body for it. Can't wait though.

This is the first time I've seen a globe body or a lens like this. In what time period was each used? I'm surprised at the 6" base.
Thanks, Wes

The globe is a fantasy based on the artwork of an early 1900's tin sign. Fantastic Screen work.

Be better for the hobby if it was dated or marked but it does look nice.
