The terrestrial globe has green oceans and geographic entities colored tan. Geography is simple in keeping with the small size of the globe, showing countries, major cities, rivers, and mountain ranges indicated by shading. America is labeled “United States” and Canada is labeled “British.” The Hawaiian Islands are called the Sandwich Islands. The coastline of Antarctica is partially mapped, with gaps reflecting unexplored areas at the time.<\/p>\n

Joseph Schedler (fl.1860s-1880s), founder of the Schedler firm, and his successor, Herman Schedler (fl. 1880s-1890s), were German immigrants, based in New York and Jersey City, New Jersey. They manufactured a wide variety of table, floor, and novelty globes, generally for school use, but also some designed specifically for the home “parlor” and other as novelty globes and souvenirs. E. Steiger was a New York publisher that marketed various school supplies and globes, including the full line of globes made by Schedler.<\/p>\n

The base is painted green, with gilt Aesthetic Movement pattern decoration, and gilt line highlights. A similar model Schedler globe is illustrated in Steiger’s Educational Directory<\/strong> for 1878 as a “desk weight.” Numerous extant examples of this Schedler paperweight globe are known, with various different painted colors to the base, and some with slightly different cartouches.<\/p>\n
