The 6 inch globe was edited by G. Thomas, Paris, and we are unable to read the date, but it is some time prior to WWI. The French lever movement in the base rotates the globe once each 24 hours, and the pointer is set to local time. By adding or subtracting the number of hours shown on the equator ring, you can calculate the time at any point on the globe. Height 12.5 inches
