From the beginning, Columbus emphasized mass-production to make globes affordable to a broad public. Before World War II, the company had a large export business, producing globes in 24 languages. After the war, because the Russian blockade in 1948-49 isolated Berlin from the rest of West Germany, the company established a plant in Stuttgart. Throughout its history, the company has developed innovative designs for conveying the educational content of their globes.<\/p>\n<p>Cartouche on terrestrial globe: COLUMBUS GLOBE\/ Edited\/ by cartographer\/ W.
