Description from the seller

Beautiful small globe made around 1910 by the publisher of Joseph Forest at the atelier on Rue de Buci in Paris.
Joseph Forest founded his publishing house in 1886 and specialized in maps, plans, and globes. The publisher was located at 17-19 Rue de Buci in Paris and later at 1 Place du 13 Octobre in Bagneux. From 1889, he supplied schools and was recognized by the Ministry of Public Education.
The small globes from Forest are quite rare. This globe has a diameter of 16cm. Structurally, the globe and the base are in good condition. In several places, a small piece of the map sheet is missing, and the globe shows the usual signs of age.
