A 2.75 inch pocket globe, by John Newton, 1783, with a cartouche printed 'A New Terrestrial Globe by J. Newton 1783,' with coloured gores to a papier mache sphere, contained in a fishskin cover case with celestial map to the interior, with a brass clasp, one missing. John Newton was working from 1783-1818. The globe bears remarkable similarities to those of Nathaniel Hill, fl. 1742-1762 who was one of the major globe makers in London of the period. His gores for pocket globes were acquired by Newton, who re-issued the globe in 1783. The Pacific is recorded as 'The Great South Sea' and Alaska as 'Unknown Parts.'
