[QUOTE="afantiques, post: 167636, member: 25"]Pictures with flash burn should be discarded and redone. It does appear to be a modernish reproduction of a 17th C style globe. Some of these open up to be drinks cabinets. Period globes will always have the publishers details somewhere in the gores (sections of map) but is is usually a matter of moments do date globes by the geography, names of countries and discovered areas change over time. 18th C Globe makers published updated gores that could be stuck to the globe to include new discoveries.[/QUOTE]
