Does anyone have a photo or diagram that shows how the advertising (illuminated face, "PREMIUM" copy area seen in the rendering below) is shaped and/or attached to the pump? I've looked everywhere but can't find how this is supposed to be assembled. thanks, Wally

Apparently you missed Pergl on the net? www.perglgaspumpglobes.com They make these glasses new with fired on lettering. In over twenty years of restoring pumps, including several of these, I've never had one with a metal sign like your picture is showing? They have always had the frosted glass.

Thanks for posting those pages Esso Guy, that's really cool how they originally assembled them. I really appreciate your time and effort in posting them, thanks again!

The original pumps had plastic advertising panels, there were two slots at the top of the plastic for "C" clips and they clipped onto the rubber moulding then there was a tiny hole at each end on the bottom for a wire and it fit fit onto the metal frame.. I restored hundreds of these pumps in the 50's-60's for Imperial Oil Co.
