Beschrijving van de verkoper
A beautifully crafted facsimile of Betts’s Portable Globe (12,5cm in diameter), complete with a faithful reproduction of the original 19th-century (1850) manual, diagrams and instructional sheets. First introduced as an ingenious educational tool, Betts’s globe was designed to fold flat for easy transport, allowing students and travellers to explore the world wherever they were. This reproduction captures the full charm, colour and clever engineering of the historic original.
When unfolded, the globe displays an intricate cartographic design that reflects the geographical understanding of its time. The accompanying manual and diagrams offer a fascinating insight into how geography was taught in the Victorian era, making this an engaging piece for anyone interested in historical education, mapmaking or exploration.
Beautifully printed and highly decorative, the globe makes an excellent display object for a study, library, classroom or cabinet of curiosities. A wonderful conversation piece that bridges history, design and education.
