Show globe

Hanging Show Globe at the Biological Sciences/Pharmacy Library of Ohio State University
Two pharmacists in Ferndale, Michigan hanging show globes, 1954.

A show globe is a glass vessel of various shapes and sizes containing a colorful liquid. It has been a symbol of pharmacy from the 17th century England to the early 20th century in the United States. It marked the drugstore or apothecary in much the same way as the barber's pole marked tonsorial establishments in some countries. People who were illiterate needed such symbols to locate these medical practitioners.
