In 1850 John Betts produced a small portable terrestrial globe. 12.5cms (5″) in diameter, the globe was made from paper with eight hand lithographed gores.
The gores, laminated with a similar shaped backing gore, hold together fine cotton cords. The cords, travel through the gore sections and extend from the poles, and when gathered together and harnessed with a glass bead, form a delightful paper globe of the world.
Our facsimile version of this interesting terrestrial globe is made in the same way that John Betts would have done in 1850. The globe is packaged in a clear acetate box, included are two solar charts and an accompanying booklet as once supplied by John Betts.
