Jim's picture above links Union Oil with a "Rocket" advertising theme. I recently acquired a very old and rare Union globe. The person I bought it from found it in an old barn, along with another globe with a rocket on it. He said that somewhere in the last 45 years he broke the rocket globe and threw it out. This picture may indicate that the rocket globe this man had was a Union advertising piece, which is something I believe Union collectors were not aware of.
