This device is comprised of a Joslin 6-inch globe in meridian (&#8220;day circle&#8221;) revolving with arrow pointer on a pierced cast iron stand with paper calendar and zodiac, and having central brass ball representing the sun. This was a popular model for Joslin, produced in relatively large numbers in the second half of the 19th century.<\/p>\n<p>The introduction of the manual explains the need and utility for the Solar Telluric Globe, emphasizing that it is both &#8220;a model of the earth and sun, showing their motions, and illustrating the relations which each sustains to the other.&#8221; The frontispage opposite the title has a woodcut illustration of the globe. Part I of the manual describes each part of the Solar Telluric Globe and its significance in using the device. Part II consists of a series of astronomy and geography problems for students to solve using the device.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about Gilman Joslin, see our Guide to Globe Makers.<\/p>\n<p>Condition: Generally very good with the usual overall toning and wear.
