Description
Thomas Malby and Son – James Wyld the younger (1812 – 1887)
A Terrestrial Globe; A Celestial Globe… manufactured and published under the superintendence of SDUK
London, 37 Parker St., Celestial dated 1860; Terrestrial dated Jany 1st 1869. Both likely sold by James Wyld the younger from the Malby and Son stock.
Diameter: 15 in.; Height 44 in.
Each globe made up of a set of twelve lithographic globe gores, hand-colored in outline, polar calottes, some light rubbing of the surface, later varnish. Brass hour circles. Brass meridian circles, each with a graduated engraved face. The globes mounted on their original elegant English Georgian style mahogany tripod stands, original compasses with pointers, papered horizon bars supported by four quadrants, with central turned wooden pillar and cabriole legs. Cross-stretchers supporting original compasses, lacking pointers.
A fine pair of attractive traditional library globes on distinctive English-style “Georgian” mahogany stands made by Malby and Son and sold by James Wyld II. James Wyld and his son, James II, were among the leading English map and globe makers of the mid-19th century, taking over as the principal map and globe maker from the Cary brothers and Newton. James II took over the Malby and Son stock in 1860, hence these Thomas Malby and Son labeled globes with the Parker St. address sold on Malby stock stands and dated after 1860. -
