A Dollar three eighty...? Look on ebay, would give you some kind of idea.. I just looked on ebay and repro's start at $90.00 to $150.00 ..orginial ones seem to bring over $200.00 depending on Globe. :>) There are 11 pages of Gas pumps and Globes.. that's around 550 items.

Not to be a wise-acre, but how do you tell an original from a re-pop?

The first thing I did was check Ebay.

I thought some Fordbarners would be owners of visible gas pumps and know what the going $$$ is for original globes.

Don is spot on with the appx price IF original. Originals are dated at the base end of the globe. Also I see some color fade at the bottom and possible chip or chipped or worn paint at the edge of the top which should enter into the bargaining...

This a later globe. The 20's and 30's globes said "Good Gulf Gas" or words to that effect. There is a site like FordBarn for gas pumps and oil and gas related memorbilia. Someone may have a link or you can google it.
