Blackboard globes were used in schools to demonstrate the relationships between spherical trigonometry and mathematical geography, as well as for mapping the geographical and geopolitical relationships of the globe. Generally, the globe was covered with a slate-like coating since the plaster could later be erased. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
