Elegantly colored. Warner: "In addition to the Franklin 10-inch terrestrial globe, H.B. Nims & Co. brought out another 10-inch which appears identical to that of Gilman Joslin." We believe that our copy (from Welsh) is this globe (Warner lists it as "private coll.") and it appears graphically very close to our Joslin 6-inch of 1860. On a turned wooden base with a single column support. Full height from base to tip is 19 inches. |
