Terrestrial table globe. It forms a pair with the celestial globe Johnston, GLB0252. Geographical details on the sphere are the same as Johnston GLB0067, but there are a few differences. For instance, the names of the SOUTH PACIFIC OCEAN and ANTARCTIC OCEAN have been added. The name Sofala in Africa is changed into Mozambique. The name of the steam packet route from Suez to Bombay, not the route itself, is removed, and South Victoria 1841 is changed into South Victoria Land'. On GLB0067 Zanzibar l is not underlined in red but on GLB0251 it is.
As with GLB0067, Greeley Fiord is indicated north of Greenland. In the south polar area there are labels for nine regions, including, for example, Supposed Southern continent, Emp. Peter I and Graham Island'. Telegraph lines in the oceans are marked and labelled, which connect Europe with North America and India with Malaya/China, and in Australia there is a line marked and labelled. A total of seven oceans are named.); © National Maritime Museum, Greenwich, London. © © National Maritime Museum, Greenwich, London / Bridgeman Images
