Could you imagine what these would look like mounted on a yellow or red ripple globe body??! They are 15 inch lenses, so ground down to fit a 13 1/2 inch ripple, wouldn't look to good... If you look close they appear to have some condition issues, i would guess based on that about 4-6k a lense...mm
Wanted early tin litho signage.
petro, farm, auto, etc.

I recently sold a single for a little over $3000. Only a one color globe don't think they are worth more than that. But again, someone just paid over $1400 for a Skelly Aromax globe so these days I guess I need to rewrite the globe CD! Can't keep up with the crazy prices. Scott B.

He has been doing some home work and has talked to a lot of people! Yes, they are only red and white but the graphics of the dragon are cool which i think will drive the price. People really think the box adds to the price and with him knowing where they came from confirms the history behind the lenses. Here is auction if someone wants to see all the pics of the lenses. http://www.auctionzip.com/Listings/1832552.html

I agree with Scott B on this one. 4k max per lens. I think Jarvis has been smoking to much Indiana weed......LOL We will see though.

Sold for $7600. Any yes I was the backup phone bidder. Each lens had a chip at the bottom as I was told. I tried to start 2014 off with a bang, but my gun was shooting blanks LOL.
