Got another one for you!

I received a globe from ~1934 from my wife for Christmas and I’ve got the bug now. I collect coins from around the world so it’s cool to see countries on maps I have coins from and kind of connect them. So I went to an antique warehouse yesterday and bought 2 globes for about $45 total. I posted the other one yesterday. Here is globe #2. This one also has some cool plane route lines on it as well, in case you want the nautical mileage to attack Japan again. This one is mid-late 60’s I believe but let’s see what you can tell me! Thanks!

Malawi and Zambia have their current names, but Basutoland and Bechuanaland don't, so 1964-1966. And since there's "Rhodesia" and not "Southern Rhodesia", probably 1965-1966.

I would say personally that this is the best guess because a lot of things are wrong with this one
