Yes, buy the globe literature/CD available here from Scott Benjamin. Don't wait until you have purchased a globe (or anything else) then ask about whether it is an original or not.
Instead of purchasing your first of anything, purchase as many petro books as possible. I would suggest you purchase my Gas Pump ID & Value book, but it is out of print, but the Nook/Kindle version is available here on this site.
Actually, just look up to the top of this page and click on the "Bookstore," everything you ever wanted to know about petro is listed there.

I go to Oldgas book store. I can see the CD for globes but no link to buy or view on Amazon.
I go to Amazon and paste "2012 Guide to Gas Globes CD, Identification and Price Guide" and nothing comes up.
I go to Ebay and paste "2012 Guide to Gas Globes CD, Identification and Price Guide" and nothing comes up.
Where can I buy this globe CD?
