Lantern & Globe
Surveys: 6" Globes
Following are known markings of 6" globes. Most markings
were originally compiled by Ken Andrews and published in "Key,
Lock and Lantern" magazine articles (See Footnotes).
Thanks to everyone who has sent in markings.
Markings are grouped by railroad and have been recorded
as accurately as possible. However, due to the nature of the survey,
there may be inaccuracies, particularly with regard to capitalization
(e.g., "Y" vs "y" in "Ry"). Next
to the markings are letter pairs (or in the case of cut globes, a letter
followed by "Cut"). The first of each letter pair indicates
color (C = clear; R = red; B = blue; G = green; Y or A = yellow or amber)
and the second indicates type of marking (C = cast, E = etched, unless
specified as Cut). For example, CC = "clear cast" and BE = "blue
etched ". Two letters separated by a slash means a two-color
globe, e.g., G/CC = "green over clear cast". Logo globes are
those globes which have, as part of the marking, artwork which was a
trademark of the railroad, e.g., the B&O Capitol Dome.

Footnotes:
- All markings are reported as collectors have identified them. No
attempt has been made to verify authenticity of any marking. The accuracy
of this material is not guaranteed .
- No ownership information is maintained with the survey listings.
All new markings sent in for addition to the list are treated anonymously,
and no ownership information will be disclosed.
- Markings in blue are shown as published in "Key, Lock and Lantern" (#56,
Summer, 1980, pp. 758-760, #81, Fall, 1986, p. 1487; and earlier versions
in issues #54 and #55); however, minor globe variations such as placement
of periods, size, and shape of box around cast letters have not been
identified as separate variations. Markings in bold red have
been added since the original information was published.
