Do I have what I hope I have? Globe 01 - Clear/White

I got this on eBay last week. I saw it and though "oh, another faded 03", but then looked at the pics and noticed that it didn't have any cap code. Then I came back on OG to see what I could find out about the elusive 01 globe. A post by Lamphead said that the the 01 globes did not have any markings on the top.


I'm running it right now, and the wax has separated, so I might have to open it up and take out some liquid to get all the wax back together. 

Thoughts?

Here's the thread where Lamphead talks about the 01. http://oozinggoo.ning.com/forum/topics/white-clear-color-code

Also:

Wax is still separated into two sections. One rises to the top and one melts and stays at the bottom. They don't combine. I might have to open the globe up and melt them back together. 

Wow... crazy!!

I hope it's an elusive #1!!

I can't think of a single person here that I would love to see get that more. <3

Awww, thanks Loren. You are too kind. :)

I'm pretty sure it's an "01" globe. I just have to decide if I want to pop the cap or keep trying to get the wax back together by running it.

That looks like the real deal to me. Very nice rare find.

Yay! I was hoping you'd chime in! Do you know anything about these? Like, how many there were? Who got them? What base/cap they were "released" with? The wax in mine is no longer white. Looks like it hasn't been run in a long time. 

Know anyone else (besides you) who has one?

HI JIM!!! *waves*

WOW! I know zero about the white/clear, but if I had to guess, I'd say you've got it. Congrats!

From what I was told there were about 100 made. They were for an employees wedding as table gifts or center pieces ?? They should have all been on Princess bases. A few were sold either from Bizzare Bizzare or Ricks Gift Emporium on the Northside of Chicago which both had direct connections to Lava World at the time. 

  I have seen a few over the years, someone on here posted one a couple years back.

Thanks for the info Jim! I just got the globe - no base or cap.
