Globe
1812
Manufactured in London, England

The Lincolns had a set of globes in their back parlor.  A Boston Journal reporter described the back parlor: “There were miscellaneous books on the shelves, two globes, celestial and terrestrial, in the corners of the room…”  This table-top mounted globe matches what the Lincolns had.
