i met a guy the other day that has a red crown globe that has a hole on the top that the light fixture attaches to with a chain and cord, he told me these were given out to red crown dealers has anyone seen one before, it has a hole in the bottom but i don't think it can be put on a pump i don't have a pic but i had this globe in my hands was wondering what it was worth he is asking a lot of money and i thought it was cool.
thanks
mark

Mark-- They used to sell in the $400 range, but lately they have been bringing around $600 for a nice one. They will bring even more at the right auction, but that's a different story!! LOL

I have a red and white one. I have also heard they were given to dealers, but were also available to Standard Oil credit card holders. I have the flier which was included in the credit card statement. They were like $29.95. If I can find my flier, I will post a photo of it.

As DB said, look on eBay. Type in "red crown globe" and then search completed items. That one sold for $355, and included a brochure, which showed that dealers could sell them for $34.95, and make $5.00. Different from the brochure I have.

...should be the first thing you do, before you ask for a value on Oldgas or Facebook...


Looking for better Gulf items: signs, globes, cans and paper - especially porcelain Gulf flanges, and Gulf A-38 & A-62 ad glass...
