Vintage Replogle Precision Globe with Rotating Zodiac Constellation Base

About the Item

Replogle 12" Precision Globe showing the relation of the Sun to the Earth, given the month of the year, and displaying day and nighttime periods. Features a pasteboard globe with bodies of water in green and landmasses in red, yellow, taupe, and peach mounted to a painted aluminum base with blue metal insert detailing the seasons, zodiacs, constellations, and months. Good, vintage condition showing paper losses/soiling/gouges throughout (particularly to the equatorial regions and a few land masses) and one dent (see Canada) to globe itself. Base shows some black paint losses and a small dent. By design, the globe isn't attached to the frame at the top, despite a presence of a hole suggesting that there would be a bracket connecting the two. The lower axis supports the globe and rotation is controlled by manually spinning the blue disk (see video). Ca. 1952/1953 (Korea and Israel present; Libya Independent). H: 15.25" x L: 13" x D: 12"
