Here are a few Ethyl logo globes from the Jim Fox Auction that Matthews Auctions held a few years back.

I knew as soon as you saw that deep rock Sanford you would be saying something. It is a nice looking globe
Originals only for me. Always looking for Simpson oil, Super A, and MFA oil cans and globes.

That bird on the Associated globe reminds me of the Richfield bird. Are the companies related?

I don't have a lot of globes - but I do specialize in globes that have the 'ETHYL' logo on them.
Especially before the Ethyl Corporation got better at controling the Ethyl image.
Early Ethyl lenses would have different numbers of rays, different colors of rays and the banner at the bottom of the logo was whatever the lens artist wanted it to be. I find the differences to be great for the collector.
Anyway, I'll post one at a time and spread them out since this thread seems to have slowed down considerably.
Here is a 15" version of the Red Pepper Ethyl image.
Later . . .

Okay, I posted my smallest Ethyl logo - now here is my bigest Ethyl logo globe.
These Sparkol lenses are on an original screw-base narrow Milkglass body.
These lenses feature the later Ethyl logo.
I'll post another one or two tomorrow.

Jim, I am watching!
By the way be careful putting notched lenses in a banded body like the Superior because the metal rings have a notch at the top like 15" metal globes do on the bottom and you can crack a lens.
Looking for anything from Hoosier Pete, Platolene 500 and Red Bird.
