This is a special commemorative edition Replogle 16" World Classic Series globe mounted in a turned-wood stand with casters. The globe features a cream-toned map with raised relief and is set in a 22" round x 32" tall wooden frame.
What makes this piece especially unique are the two commemorative brass medallions mounted on the wood ring:
-
University of California 1868 Seal – likely produced as a special edition gift or award for UC alumni, faculty, or donors.
-
Columbus “Discoverer of the New World – 500th Anniversary 1492–1992” – issued to mark the quincentennial celebration of Columbus’s first voyage.
This combination of commemorative medallions suggests it was a limited-run edition produced around 1992, making it more collectible than standard Replogle globes.
