Hi Everyone!
It is time for a new installment of Globe of the Month! This months feature is the Animal Kingdom. Any globe with any type of animal, bird, fish, or mythological creature (Mobil Flying Red Horse)can be posted.
We will start with a couple of globes featuring mans best friend. Take a few minutes and lets see some "animal" globes!
Thanks!
Lonnie

Here's another photo of mans best friend along with a Home Oil Company globe with a detailed eagle. Diesel picture globes are somewhat uncommon.

Keith Thanks, I was just lucky and bought most of them many years ago when they were affordable.

Looking good everyone!
It is hard to beat the West Coast Company globes when it comes to great graphics on 15" metal bodies!
We have seen one Independent Oil Men of America (IOMA) with the Thunderbird logo. There are literally dozens of different Thunderbird globes out there. Here are a few I have photographed over the years and I know I have photos of others that I will dig out later.
Lets see some more animal globes, we have not even scratched the surface yet. There are 100s of different animal themed globes. Post them if you have them.
Thanks!
Lonnie

Here are a few more Thunderbird logo globes. I know I have photos of others and I will post them later. The Minnesota one was on the Iowa Gas Auction a couple of years ago and was a little washed out but it is the only one I have ever seen.
Lets see some more animal globes. There are only about 25 different Mobil globes with the Flying Red Horse, lets see some of them!
Thanks!
