Two 3-inch pocket globes

The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.

Both in good condition with marks and patina consistent with age and use.
The celestial with stable cracks to plaster. Revearnished at some point. The case almost certainly contemporary to globe and possibly original. It closes with difficulty, and may warp with changes in humidity. (A previous example we have seen shrank around globe which became stuck until moisture was applied to case.)
The terrestrial with brown patina to varnish. Holes with loss to poles. The stand later and in good condiot with recent drill marks to underneath.
