Is an old globe worth anything?

1 Answer
Is an old globe worth anything?
Yes, some old globes are worth something. There are collectors who seek out globes made from specific materials, such as metal or wood, or ones produced by certain manufacturers, such as Replogle, Rand McNally, John & William Cary and Denoyer-Geppert. In addition to maker and materials, the age, type, style and condition will also have an impact on the value of a globe. A certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer can aid you in the evaluation process for a particular piece. On 1stDibs, explore a large collection of antique and vintage globes.
