    I'm very pleased with my Globe. Have had it for a while now and it never ceases to bring me great joy

    The craftsmanship is superb. Stunningly beautiful! Always loved maps (museums that house old maps and globes) and the changing viewpoint of the then known world. Glad to see the art of this is being kept alive by you and your team!

    (I came to various sites which show your work due to my having done sculpture and trying to create a sphere without paper mache build up - lumpy. Plaster clothe inside a mold to start helps a lot.)

    Nice job. I'll stick with Google Earth, all the same :-)

    Why can’t they do the coloring in the map design stage?
  • Does anyone have one of these globes. Do the longitude lines match up all the way around the equator? Probably not.
