Contact seller5-star sellerOblong folio (22.5 x 11.25 in.) Two rotating wheels each showing hemisphere projection maps, which are attached to a thick brown base, w/ printed labels on front cover, original rivets still present, printed paper label and instructions on verso (some rubbing & edgewear, minor foxing & scuffing), still a G exemplar. First editio…n of this fascinating and scarce global map which allows the user to view steamship, or airline distance routes, as well as the principal railroads. The global map was designed so that opposite halves of the earth's surface could be rotated and synchronized enabling continuous and accurate spherical relationships across any point on the rotating maps. The label on the back lists the area in square miles, and population totals of the world. The map is dated to around 1941 because of the inclusion of Vichy France, the government allowed by the Nazi occupiers after the fall of France in 1940.
