A wonderful place for travel related snow globes is Saks Fifth Avenue. They have beautiful glass snow globes of any city that has a Saks.

I collect travel snow globes, the tackier the better. No need to go to Saks Fifth Avenue for a very, very expensive globe. Check out the airport gift shops ($3 - $6) or the cheap souvenir shops. The cheap ones are the best.

I'd have to disagree. I have my Saks collection proudly displayed. Lots of positive comments from visitors to my home. They say that they're far more interesting and pretty than the tacky ones collected from the street corner.

I have some that I have collected from the San Francisco Music Box Company and the last one I got was from Saks in New Orleans. I haven't been able to find a nice one of London. Does anyone have any ideas of where I could order one?

Oh - I'm so happy that I am not alone in my obsession with snow globes! I love the tacky plastic travel snowglobes. The more cliched the better - hearts, rainbows, etc. It seems that the inexpensive plastic globes are becoming harder to find. I also have a few nice snowglobes that others have purchased for me.

My favorite: from Rome a plastic snowglobe with the Pope in it. Very cool.

What am I missing? Where are there snow globes on the home page? Do you mean Fodors' strange flying person trademark?

Sheila, have you tried Ebay yet? I typed in London snow globe, but it only brought up one (of the Tower of London).

And, honestly, I haven't seen the snow globe on the first page either.

When I went to Graceland, I had hoped to find a snow globe there, but believe it or not, they didn't have any! It seems to me that would be the perfect place to sell them.

Sheila: I picked up one of the Saks ones for London at 70% of the $35 price. I found it on clearance in the Palm Desert, California store, but was told that many of the stores have this particular one on clearance since it's been discontinued.

Good luck in your search!
