Miniature Terrestrial Globe, c.1825 (Inv. 33596)

Name: Stephanie

Age: 25

From: Australia

Occupation: Teacher

Object: Globe

Story: Every time in my house when one of us would ask a question about a place of country, my dad’s immediate response would be “Do you know . . .” closely followed by “GET THE GLOBE”. A collective groan would right through the house as we had to spot a country on the globe. Now, however, I still do it to my students.
