    Default How old is your globe ?

    Interesting link I saw today about how to date a somewhat modern globe (back to at most 1939).

    Oh that's cool. I gotta scan my globe to look for those old names.

    Have to check mine too. I do have west and east Germany(picked up the globe on second hand), that I know. But could be fun to know the exact date.

    If we still had our, I know it would have been around the 1960's somewhere.
