John:
Thanks - but I checked these lenses when I installed them. I don't remember if there is actually a notch in these bands or not - all I remember is I could spin the lenses easily once I did install them.

Jim, All the banded bodies i have seen had a metal "bump" at the top. I would look at it myself to make sure you don't break a cool lens.
Looking for anything from Hoosier Pete, Platolene 500 and Red Bird.

Here's one for a rainy Sunday afternoon.
Super Rose Ethyl - one of the only lenses you'll ever see with a 'Script' font on it. Most script fonts look really crappy when you try to set them onto a curve.

Great posts so far! I have been busy the last few weeks and have not added much to this post. Thanks for picking up the slack Jim. With your love of the Ethyl logo globes this post was made for you!
Here are a few Ethyl globes that I have photograghed at auctions over the past few years. The Bonded and the Crown are both uncommon globes and seldom offered for sale.
Souperhigh (aka as Maurice Campbell) sent me photos of a bunch of his Ethyl globes and I will be a adding a few here and there over the next couple of weeks.
Keep those photos coming.
Thanks!
Lonnie
Wanted: Ripple Body Globes, picture globe, any Dixie Distributors keyhole gas pump globe and ANYTHING from Old Dutch Refining, Muskegon, MI Musgo sign

Thanks Mick.
Here is my contribution for a windy Saturday - and the last one I have to post.
A nice Dixie Ethyl on a Capco body. This is a single lens - so if anybody has another single to sell, drop me a note.
