Hey Freaky, your not offending anyone. the trend started out here in California. Because of the rarity of original west coast globes .a guy by the name of Ken Grant had a large collection and didn't really want to sell and a guy with a lot of moola said ,"Hey you can only see one side , sell me the other ". and that's that. if you have some rare globes it doen't hurt to sell half. and if you have your globe on a nice pump aginst the wall and can only see one side. why not. I have three rare Seaside globes that are one sided but there still worth half the value of a hole one. or more.
Now theres a new trend going around thanks to me about doing each side of a pump different and putting it on a heavy duty lazy susan , and its catching on. pump builders can make more money from their pumps that way also. Hancock on one side Phillips on the other, that way you have one pump and display two companys and use the space of one pump. how about that. ??/ have fun . don't worry . love Dwaine . a little wine don't hurt . eh. did i say all that. ???
