In my opinion, no, but then I am not a globe person.

For any of us on this site to possibly help you, we would first need to know the outside demention of the base of the globe.

I am with Jack first thing that comes to mind is no. But there are new discoveries all the time so saying that measure the bottom flange and lets see what size it is.


Looking for anything from Hoosier Pete, Platolene 500 and Red Bird.

4", 6" & 7" is all I've seen/heard of.
Some guys paint Fish Bowls to use as globes.

Not a gas globe. It is a light fixture used for decoration and to keep water, wasp, etc out of the pump. I sent you an email click on the flashing red envelop towards the top
