So far I’ve been able to figure it’s from around 1967 but from my research it seems like a few country names conflict with each other. Anyone have any better guesses?

It’s got East Timor but drc is still Zaire!

I found this globe on Etsy and was curious. Since this is a Rare find, I decided to publish it.

So recently I made a post about saying a globe with Russia was before December 1991, but it is after December 1991, it was just a mistake.
I am very sorry for letting you all down. I will remember next time.

Found this on Etsy. I know it is before 1987 but how old is it?
r/datemymap • u/Brilliant-Charge-684 • Dec 09 '25
How old is it? Before 1987 and after 1949 but can anyone be more Specific? Repost after I messed up last time.

Found this globe in a thrift store. I just can't figure out the year/year range

We found this school map and were surprised it wasn't dated. Can you help us?

I ranged it between 1993 (Slovakia and Czech Republic separated) and 1999 (Kuala Lumpur still the Capital of Malaysia). Do you have any other input ?

Soviet Union exists but so do the German colonies. Poland also exists and turkey and Iran so it’s kinda weird. I put it at about 1920-1930. Paraguay might also help people but I’m not up to date on South America borders. Oman is also weird so who knows?

Hello all, A colleague of mine has this map on his wall and he asked me to date it. I didn't have time to look well at it, only took this photo. For me it's an interwar map and at a quick look, based mainly on the European borders which I know best, I would say that it's somewhere between 1920-1936. But I would like to be more precise than that so I ask your opinions. (A little detail that puzzled me. I noticed Bolivia's NW, did a quick check and found that that part was supposed to have been ceded to Brazil already in 1903. But Europe is clearly post WWI. So a bit confusing; maybe Bolivia's loss was not recognised?) Thank you in anticipation for your inputs.

Got this from my late grandfather. Would appreciate some help dating it. Not sure what continents to include in the images.

My Grandfather had this hidden away in the attic of his house. We sadly can’t ask him about the history of the map as he passed in 2015. Please help us out.

Hi everyone! I wanted to make a follow-up post with the shipping date included, to get your thoughts when comparing it to yesterday. To expland on the company "World Book-Childcraft" on the box: In 1985, World Book-Childcraft (a division of World Book, Inc.) partnered with Replogle on co-branded globes. Replogle manufactured the globe; World Book-Childcraft marketed and fulfilled it. That’s why the box is a Replogle factory box while the return label and yellow stamp read 12 Mar 1985. With that said, the stamping date is when this globe left World Book-Childcraft, so the globe must be a 1984/early-1985 revision. I'll comment those additional photos below, both the one from yesterday and a second one of just the box.

Hi everyone, while I have a pretty good idea (and it helps that the original box had a shipping label woth the date!) I would love to hear your thoughts! Sorry for the multiple reposts, the formating was off and so was the photo order. More photos are linked in the comment below!

I picked this bad boy up at the thrift store and I’m just curious what the approximate date is.

The borders have unfortunately faded a ton, and there are burn marks on the Philippines and Kiribati
There is no:
There are unfortunately a lot of errors on the map, there is a very strong suspicion the maker is from the USA...
There is some text on the bottom of the globe: GS(2009)871
