The metal base is sleek and modern. The base itself measures approximately 8" in diameter. There is a bit of rust where the axis is bolted to the base, but it is quite minor.
Not much of the equator sticker remains, and some light vintage wear is seen in other areas as well: a few minor tears in the paper, plus some surface wrinkles which were probably manufacturing flaws. The flaws are unnoticeable when viewing casually.
Vintage globes are becoming quite the collectors’ pieces, and I’ve seen collections serve as wonderful display pieces in the home. The classic shape and nostalgic nature of maps make globes fantastic home accents.

Please convo me for an international shipping quote. Due to the size of the globe, it will have to ship Priority International, therefore the cost will be quite high.
**Due to the vintage nature of this item there may be some slight imperfections, resulting in extra character and charm.
