Primarily Petroliana Shop Talk Forums Shop Talk Petroliana Forums Showcase and Stories, Petroliana Globe Of The Month For January 2005

It's hard to believe that this is our 25th GOTM feature! Thanks to all that have contibuted pictures to make this the longest continuously running feature we do here in the Showcase forum.

For this month's feature lets show all the globes we collected in 2004. I know Rex picked up several killer globes in 2004.
Jarvis can even post that mountain of broken glass and plastic he collected in '04. LOL.

This isn't a gas pump globe, but it's so cool I had to have it. It came from Gary Hildeman's auction.

I picked this one up at the spring show in Peotone.

It dates from the mid to late 1950's. I was able to pick up the green version at the spring Dixie Gas show, but I don't have a picture of it.

These two came from the Ohio Gas show.

These were ebay purchases.

Ya gotta love that old 66 logo!


Dixie globes like this were used until the late 1990's!


Pan-Am globes are among my favorites. This version was used throughout the 1930's.

Nice stuff Bob ,That basement globe is really cool, Did the cites service globe come in black also ,or were they just green and red ?

A few more from ebay.


My Dad was from Ohio so I wanted an Ohio globe. This one dates from the 40's and 50's.


Jarvis must have been around when I bought this one. The body arrived broken. Luckily I was able to find another original oval capco.
Does JJ work for UPS?

Here are a few more I picked up at Ohio Gas.



You don't see too many mid-western globes with six colors. The Ethyl globe is red, white, blue, black, yellow, and grey!

My Mom is from Kentucky, so I needed a Kentucky globe too.
I picked this one up at the fall show in Peotone.

These two came from the CTO show in Columbus.

Rex hooked me up with the guy that had this globe while we were visting last fall.

Lets see what you guys turned up at the shows, auctions and on ebay last year.

I'll be happy to post your pictures if you can't.

Thanks Chris,
The C-S came in red, green, and yellow. Some of the other C-S globes were black and white, but not the capco bodied versions.
