1891réf. 10008Seneca Falls NY 1891. No Binding. Near Fine. 3-inch diameter globe anchored in magnifying glass as issued; 5 ½ inches total height. Color-printed wax-engraved gores; some fading of place names a few repair in extreme southern portion but overall remarkably little wear; overall excellent condition. An unrecorded delightful cartographic curiosity: a very good quality miniature globe with a magnifying paperweight as its base. Only two other globes by the American Globe and Supply Company are known: a six-inch terrestrial recorded by Rumsey dated 1892 and an eight-inch terrestrial cited in Rittenhouse dated 1891; see below.

Very nice condition for an object of this kind. Cf. Rumsey 5120; Rittenhouse Vol. 2 No. 1 p. 23. unknown books
