Walnut case in an old finish has a shrinkage crack on the lower back. The Joslin's 6 inch Terrestrial Globe is in very nice condition, although it has age darkened a little. The bottom door has a repair at the bottom left corner. The paper minute dial is a replacement. Original finial and drops. There is a dark partial label inside the case.
