Globe Shipbuilding (2), Superior WI

There were two Globe Shipbuilding Companies in Superior, one operational only during WWI, the other only during WWII. They were at different locations, because the WWI Globe's facility was used by Walter Butler Shipbuilders in WWII. Comments or queries, please email info@navalmarinearchive.com.
