KI-gestützte Zusammenfassung
Vom Verkäufer bereitgestellte Beschreibung
Up for auction is a fine and exceedingly rare large 34cm diameter SVH illuminated glass globe from the late 1940s, early 1950s.
In the interbellum and after the second world war, the globes were made for SVH by Paul Oestergaard's company Columbus in Berlin.
The publishing company SVH, or Esveha, existed in The Hague from 1876-1974 and was owned by a Jewish family. Also the majority of the employees were Jewish.
During the war the company was seized by the Nazi's and the complete inventory and machinery of the company was shipped to Germany. Sadly, hardly any of the employees survived the war.
Jo Hartog, at that time the CEO of the company fled to Surinam and came back after the war to restart the company, only to consequently move to the USA. His daughter, Fay Levin-Hartog returned to The Hague from 2009-2011 because she was appointed by Barack Obama to be the ambassador for the USA in the Netherlands.
These fairly early illuminated glass SVH globes are becoming quite rare, especially the large version like this one. It shows the signs of the times fitting its age (some wear on the edges of the map gores). An eye catcher in every home or office, and with an interesting history attached to it.
Look at the photos too, they form an important part of the description.
