I am trying very hard to fight the urge to buy globes, but everytime I go to Maurices(souperhigh) collection I get the itch!
I definitely need a 15" lens to fill an empty spot. I cannot spend much, so something common would be fine. I do not mind condition, I would almost prefer a lens with a flaw like missing paint or a chip or crack.
I would like a couple more globes, once again common and inexpensive, not in a hurry, but if you have something, or come across something, please keep me in mind.
Thanks!

A few years ago I bought a Marathon 15" lens real cheap. It had quite a bit of amateur restoration to it. It looked OK to me. I've done nothing with it since and probably won't. If you're interested in that let me know. I can e-mail a pic to you and see what I paid for it. I'm thinking it was around $30. Maybe less.

I have a 15in American Gas lens on my site in the for sale section under globes. If you are interested I will do much better than the price there

Thanks guys. I think I am set on the 15" I have a couple options. I would prefer 13.5" lenses to add to the collection.
