One Piece Baked Globe for Musgo Gasoline. An excellent example of one of the most beautiful Globes in the entire Gas & Oil hobby. This particular example of this globe shows outstanding color & gloss throughout both sides and is one of the finer examples as far as condition of the original paint we have ever sold. The colors are bright and the Native American graphic on each side is excellent. The paint shows only a slight amount of surface and storage wear, but overall very tough to improve upon. The globe is Ink Stamped inside with its Date of September 20, 1929. The base shows a very nicely repaired chip, as well as a repaired crack on side two that runs from the base up into the MIL of Mile and runs to just below the S of Michigan's. The base chip and crack have been repaired with a resin type cast that has completely fixed the issues and displays the Globe excellent. A very clean example of this highly sought after globe, and an excellent piece of early Gas & Oil advertising.
Condition: (8.0+).
