globes

Timeless and beautiful, the globe is a wonderful symbol of travel and adventure. The globe was an invention of the Greek's and used to map the celestial sky. Later discovery of the world being a physical globe lead to a boom in cartography and global mapping. In the 1950's the globe became one of the most necessary pieces of equipment in the classroom. During that time more globes were produced then every before and since then, they have became a vintage staple of the classroom. Today, they have become a symbol of a time past and schoolhouse retro.
