A petite Cram’s 9 inch
globe with a unique mounting and political important
display and in nearly perfect condition.
A Cold War Relic itself, the
map of this globe speaks of a politically very intense
time line, 1961. It
shows the short lived United Arab Republic, a Union
between Egypt and Syria that lasted for only 4 years
(1958-61).
The globe itself is made of
pasteboard with a hollow orb; mounted onto a metal modern
mid century styled base in a unique matte gold finish.
Near perfect! No scuffing and
very minimal soiling, one wrinkle. Colors are brilliant,
details crisp. On the mounting some of the color has
chipped off.
The age of the globe has been
identified by the political borders displayed: UAR is
visible (1958-61), all colonies in Africa have ceased
to exist as such (1960).
