Very pretty! What will happen with your old (cheap, if I remember correctly...) replica? -- Chris
I don't have a replica of the Behaim Globe yet. I guess you mean the brownish globe in antique look which used to be in my living room? That was modern cartography. The Behaim globe has the huge advantage that some parts of the world are missing which cause only trouble.
