Comes with a signal green etched, "C&NWRY" extended base globe. No manufacturers marks shown but it does resemble an 1882 A&W. Dark patina and showing pitted surfaces but appears cleaned for display. Brass top has small fatigue splits and dome slightly pushed down. Heavy globe that shows a couple of no show bottom edge rim chips. Overall an early and welcome addition.
