World Globe ID - Danish modern style?  

-
Globes are trendy.
What makes you think is from 70's?
If you check the countries you'll have a clue on the date in wich it was made.. (i.e.: URSS /letonia/lituania).
I saw yesterday 2 similars, in wood, very similar, new and chinese, you know chinese are making wonderful things...
It's Nice!.

Rand McNally world globe
cali4sun,
This Rand McNally World globe is a serious piece (remember the scene in Close Encounters when the guy ask: Do you know how much that globe cost). Rand McNally sold the mold years ago to a US (not Chinese - they make sub par products for WalMart shoppers) company that is still producing them (they also make moon globes). They are in the $30,000.00 price range. The University of Toledo (Ohio) has one on display
In your particular case a suggest a vintage piece.

I believe it's Jens Risom

niceguy, you call that a globe?
It needs to be bigger!

Bigger
I prefer my globes to be life-sized.

Parafo - This one does illuminate which is also why I like it. I think it looks real cool!! Thanks for everyone who has replied.
Cheers!

Gustavo - I thought it was...
Gustavo - I thought it was from 1970's from looking at the electrical cord. It was vintage 70's/or 1960's and appeared to be original. I'd recommend that you do not buy Chinese stuff unless your ok with it being disposable.
Woodywood - I agree with you globes statment!!!

Thanks for ID
Just brought the Jens Risom floor globe home. Very Cool, The globe dates to about 1971. Thanks for the ID help. Cheers! (not bad for $75)
