Rare C.S. Hammond world globe in beautiful condition has a sleek metal half meridian and an Art Deco bakelite base. What makes this Hammond globe extra special is its rare 9-inch diameter and the presence of its original paper time and meridian disks which are rarely seen.
The world globe is in good condition for its age with some discoloration from age, a few stains, light marks, and small spots of a paper loss. There is a small indentation near New Zealand.
The globe dates to early 1930s. The globe shows the extent of British Empire at the time in pink, the Chinese Republic (1912 - 1949), Persia, Palestine, French Indo-China, Japanese Empire, Netherlands Indies, French Equatorial Africa, French West Africa, Belgian Congo, South Rhodesia, North Rhodesia, Bechuanaland Protectorate, South West Africa (Damara Land), Tannu Tuva (Misspelled Tuwa, 1921-1949), Transjordan (1921 - 1946), Istanbul indicated with Constantinople in brackets, and various other outdated political entities.
