Roger is correct on the green ripples. Michigan Maid used them (two known), Harmony Oil out Michigan used them (three known), and there were several that turned up in Eastern Iowa about 20 years ago that were presumed to be from American Oil out of Davenport, Iowa. The vast majority of green ripples were from advertising globes with most of them being Ice Cream globes.

There was an older collector in Ohio years ago that had 4 green ripples and each of them had been found with Ice Cream lenses. Ripples that were used with advertising lenses (beer companies used a lot of them, especially in the Baltimore area for some reason) always have screw bases on them. This was beacause they were hung upside down over doorways as an entrance light/adverisiing piece. The reason for the screw base is obvious, a globe hanging by just a glass base would over a period of time crack and eventually fall off due to the weight of the globe and vibration. I hope these few random thoughts help!
