It has been way to long since we have had a Globe of the Month feature! It has been a busy summer and fall has slipped by to. Hope everyone is enjoying the Thanksgiving Holiday!

This Months feature is globes with Planes, Trains, Autos, or anything else that could be used to transport people or products like Trucks, Boats, or???

Why not take a few minutes and share photos of any of your globes that feature these things. Even if you have posted your globes before in another feature you can post again. We all enjoy looking at pictures of globes.

Thanks!

Lonnie

I Love that Speedway Globe! I have always wanted one. Speedway was from Canon City Colorado, just up the road from me.
Thanks for starting this thread again.

Looking good everyone!

Here are a couple of "Globe" globes featuring transportation related images. The Ethyl version is mine and the regular one is from John O'Hern's website.

I have a few more photos I will posting in the coming days. In the meantime lets see your transportation related globes!

Thanks!

Great globes everyone!

If you have not clicked on John O'Hern's link (Globes and Signs) take a minute and do so. He has photos of some of the best of the best Airplane globes.

John, love that Imperial globe, it is the only one I know of. If an Eagle can carry a 55 gallon barrel of oil that is definately a transportation related globe!

I will round up some photos of globes to post over the weekend. In the meantime lets see yours.

Thanks!

Lonnie

Here are a couple of "Zeppelin" globes from Scott Benjamin. Great pair of globes and ones that are seldom seen.

The use of Zeppelin's as a means of air travel dates back to the early 1900s but the guy that is credited with inventing the Zeppelin had drawings dating back to 1875. Definately a guy ahead of his time!

Thanks for the photo!

Check out the close up on this Kerr McGee globe. A plane, car, and a covered wagon with a city / factory scene in the back ground, all pictured over the outline of the state of Oklahoma.

It turned up Ebay a few years back and I am not exactly sure who owns the globe today. Neat piece and the only one that I know of.

I'll try to round up a few more photos of transportation globes in the next few days. in the meantime if you have any photos to add please do so. Thanks!

I'm not a globe guy. (thankfully or I even be more broke) But, I must admit this is a great thread! Thanks to all who have shared your photos as I would never get to see such beautiful and special looks at gas and oil history.

Lonnie, you are doing an outstanding job, I forgot how much I love looking at these photos.

Here are a couple of photos I took at the 2008 Iowa Gas Show. The Tyreco globe is pretty scarce, I only know of a couple of them in collections.

The Hudson Transport is also an uncommon globe. The Regular and Ethyl versions turn up regualarily but the Hudson Transport version is a little tougher to come by.

I have a few more photos to post on this thread and we will be starting a new Globe of the Month after the first of the year.

Merry Christmas to all!

Here are a couple of more transportation related globes.

The Thoni Oil Company features a futuristic "Buck Rogers" type space ship.

The second one is from the Viking Oil Company which was out of Algona, Iowa. Very few globes feature sailing ships and I can't help but wonder what tie in a sailing ship would have with a company from Iowa?

I will see if I can find a few more photos and next week we will start a new topic for globe of the month.

We would like to wish everyone a safe, prosperous, and Happy New Year!
