The 36B was used for a lot of years and could have had about any style or size globe used on it. The deciding factor on globe usage would have been the company using it.....GB

Thanks for the info. I was going to use a 15" but I may look at the 13" due to the 36B being tall and slender the 13" may look better.

It will look good with either size. It is just a great looking pump to begin with so you can't go wrong.

According to original Tokheim factory literature they globe holder was either a 6" or 7" depending on which top the pump had. The repair parts manual shown on this page of my website shows all the tops and each top has the size of the globe holder it would have on it. http://petrolianacollectibles.com/tokheim%2036b.htmJack Sim Author Gas Pump Bible, www.gaspumpbible.com
