Catalog Description:

C.1880, Juvet Time Globe, 18 inches. Patented by Lewis Paul Juvet of Glens Falls, New York a few years before it was finally manufactured by James Arkell and A. G. Richmond in Canojoharie, NY around 1880. The movement is contained with the globe and rides on the axis shaft. It is wound by turning the tail feathers of the arrow.
