This is a terrific blackfield which is rare, 10.5-in world globe lamp now being that dark it doesn't light up too much I took the global to show you that the light works but you don't get a whole lot of light from it because it is so dark but this is what makes it very rare. It is am pretty good condition and it shows the old Soviet Union East and West Germany and all that I don't know exactly how old it is I think it's probably 1960s era but I also believe it's pretty rare because you just don't see them with the dark field like that and it has the inline click switch it turns it on and off
