September 2011: We are exhibiting globes at the International Map Trade Association, (Americas) annual conference, Rancho Mirage, California. Catch us there!

March 2011: MB8 completed.

January 2011: Partnered with Real World Globes to produce map sets and assembly instructions for their 18" globe kits. Geographic education is so important -- we need to do all we can to support learning about this wide world of ours. These kits allow tactile learning through assembling the sphere, measuring and calibrating the surface and attaching the map sheets. Once the assembly is complete the globe with its dry-erasable surface can be used to support many lessons plans involving geography, history, social sciences and spherical geometry.
