JOSLIN, Gilman

Joslin's Terrestrial Globe Containing all The Late Discoveries and Geographical Improvements, also the Tracks of the most celebrated Circumnavigators. Compiled from Smith's New English Globe, with additions and improvements by Annin & Smith. Revised by G.W. Boynton.
Boston, c.1890. 12" globe consisting of 12 hand coloured engraved gores, on original cherry wood stand, with calibrated brass meridian with brass hour pointer, and wooden horizon with engraved calendar and zodiac, total 18" high.

A few signs of wear.
