I have one lens. The globe and other lens was broken by guests. What's the worth?

I’m not a globe guy but the one lens has a pretty good value, too bad the body & other lens was broken!

Thanks. I worked at a distributer 50 years ago and they closed down. The manager told me I could have whatever I wanted. They had a bunch of globes in a shed and I took two.

gotta be worth $750 I would guess. The body is a hard one to find though

Just asking...does your surviving clover-shaped lens have a broken out piece in the 10 o'clock position? The photo makes it appear that way, but perhaps it's the camera angle. Again, not finding fault...it's just that a missing piece would impact the value of your lens. And, yes, what a shame you lost the complete Cities Service globe. I know how lousy I'd feel. John

That's a reflection.
