There are some great resources out there related to globes from a gent named George Glazer that include:
All of it has his copyright and with all rights reserved. He may - or may NOT - be open to letting his text be incorporated into Wikipedia. Given that it is all on the site for his gallery in New York (which sells globes), I could see where he might want to have the traffic go to his site.
In any event, it's definitely good info that should probably at least have a link from here. I'm leaving it on this discussion page in case someone wants to contact the gentleman directly.

[edit] foot or feet
"The Mapparium, 30 foot walk-in globe at the Christian Science complex in Boston, intended to be viewed from within."
Shouldn't it be feet?

[edit] What?
"The term globe is used as the name of objects termed to be globes." Hard to argue with this. . . .
