While there's always exceptions, from what I've read over the years most of the major companies phased out globes in the early 1960's.

The globes were gone when I owned a Shell station in 1969.

Cliff Brice used them through the late 80's early 90's on the wall sconces, but I think the Sinclair dino globes were pulled in the late 60's early 70's when the pumps no longer took them.
