They have been manufactured since the mid-19th century, initially in Bavaria’s Nuremberg and in Prague in the Czech Republic, and since the 1920s in our country. The production of globes is multi-stage and can be financed partially or entirely by sponsors and patrons. In addition to the products of the company C. Abel-Klinger Kunsthandlung, the first copies were financed by patriot booksellers: Jabłoński, Milikowski, Idzik and Hoesick. After the First World War, copies were financed by publishing companies: Zakłady Główczewskiego, Pomoc Szkolna, Nasz Sklep–Urania, Wydawnictwo Polskie, publishing companies from Katowice, and the mysterious Deutsher Verlag publishing house based in Warsaw and Poznań. Changes in printing technology significantly reduced their price, demand for them by schools and children and young people popularised them as teaching aids. Companies financing and popularising these Polish-language publications played an important role in the publishing of globes. To a large extent, these were companies associated with the production and distribution of teaching materials. In general, all companies discussed can be gathered in three groups: booksellers financing or co-financing the publication of Polish-language globes; publishers responsible for financing and publishing globes; publishers responsible for making maps.
