I assume it predates the more common shield globes by a few years. I would like to see a pic of your sign. If any one else has any knowledge or vintage photos with that globe I would like to know.

That's a great sign. Didn't know that one existed. There is a globe that matches it on scott's CD listed as the only one known! Here's a few more pics of some globes and signs.
