A Maclean's-branded Replogle terrestrial desk globe with cartography credited to LeRoy M. Tolman. The multicolor political map includes ocean currents, elevation and ocean-depth figures, international and state boundaries, city-population symbols, steamship routes, and shelf-ice markings. The globe is mounted at a tilted axis within a gold-tone metal half meridian on a circular pedestal base. Made in the U.S.A.

ARTIST / CREATOR BIOGRAPHY
LeRoy Matthew Tolman (1931-2015) was an American cartographer whose long career centered on the changing political geography of the modern world. A third-generation Chicagoan from a Norwegian-American family, he developed an interest in maps as a child. After attending Kelvyn Park High School and some college, he pursued professional cartography in his native city. Tolman joined Replogle Globes in the mid-1950s, choosing the company for the opportunity to study under German cartographer Gustav Brueckmann. He eventually became Replogle's chief cartographer and remained with the globe maker for 44 years, retiring in 1998. His work involved drawing and revising maps by hand, selecting geographic features and cities, and monitoring international boundary and place-name changes. He consulted information from United States and foreign government agencies while applying his own cartographic judgment. His career encompassed decolonization in Africa, the breakup of the Soviet Union, and numerous changes in national names and borders. Tolman's name appeared on millions of globes distributed around the world. His work combined geographic accuracy, clear visual organization, and sensitivity to the diplomatic complexities of disputed territories, leaving a familiar legacy in homes, schools, and libraries.
