The globe became the icon of the 1964 World's Fair. [8] [10] [31] A special commemorative stamp issue was issued starting in April 1964, depicting fair attractions such as the Unisphere. [32] The globe was also depicted on media and souvenirs promoting the fair. [33]
A globe is a spherical model of Earth, of some other celestial body, or of the celestial sphere. Globes serve purposes similar to maps, but, unlike maps, they do not distort the surface that they portray except to scale it down. A model globe of Earth is called a terrestrial globe. A model globe of the celestial sphere is called a celestial globe.
