Atlas pencil sharpener stamped Germany. A little of the gold is coming off the base. Great graphics. Germany in the 1920s, 30s & 40s produced a number of brilliant metal globes for use as pencil sharpeners . The gold coloring on the Atlas figural base, is in good condition. It is heavy, perhaps brass.? The age of the globe is a little hard to pinpoint but the presence of Persia does mean that it was made no later than 1935. The map does throw a few curve balls though as Hawaii is still labeled as the Sandwich Islands & St. Petersburg is labeled Pedersburg. The orb is made of hollow spun tin with a lithographed map. Diameter of the orb is about 1 5/8 inches. Vintage Atlas Pencil Sharpener Stamped Germany
