These Victorian terrestrial and celestial 18-inch library globes were made by Thomas Maby and Son in London in about 1880.
Valued at up to £12,000 they are to be sold by Christie's at the Cowdray house sale in Cowdray Park, West Sussex, on September 13.
The contents of the enormous house are being sold and among them are these splendid globes.
The family is dispensing of its two main houses, the other being in Scotland.
