Never seen these before. Anyone ever see one come up for sale. Gotta be pretty rare if there are any at all out there. Also, are those decals on those lubesters?

I've never seen Texaco light globes like that but I've seen branded light globes from Esso, Sohio, and maybe another Standard company or two. Some are etched, some are have baked on graphics.
I suspect those are 15" round porcelain signs on the lubesters. The rectangular signs are porcelain too.

I don't think they are decals on those globes. They appear to have at least three logos on each globe. I have seen smaller light globes with red stars and was told they were original Texaco light fixtures.

There Texaco canopy globes/light fixtures. To best of my knowledge it is a painted logo like the restroom fixture is. Doug (Blacktee) is the only person I know to have ever owned one.

This is a original bathroom/office globe/light fixture with the original green porcelain holder. The red stars are painted on.

I can't tell what these say, but this I cropped out of a picture of an Amoco-gas station.
Again, would love to see any such type lighting that anyone has.

Erol Tuzcu "A Tour With Texaco " by Rick Pease owned two of these and sold me one. Mine was Etched/frosted milk glass globe with scallops at the top and bottom very rare, I've only seen Erol's two globes. Early twenties from the photos I have with signage in there. If some one will put a photo up for me, I'll try to send them to you.

I'm pretty sure the ones above are the other one Erol had, and that was fired on.
