[105] An account of October 16, 1510, reads, “_Item_, 1 lb. Nov for a large brass sign surrounding the map.” This doubtless is a reference to the globe. Ghillany attributes this work to Werner.

London, 1902. This is a very remarkable piece of historical criticism. Citation is given for every statement of special importance, including a reference to those students of the question who do not agree with the author’s point of view.

[118] This work is referred to by Moll in his chapter on “Stöfflers Schriften.” [119] Moll, op. cit., chap. ix, “Stöffler als Mechaniker,” refers to him as globe maker and as clock maker, with special mention of his three celestial globes. [120] Günther is in error in referring to this globe as the one now in Constance. [121] Moll, op. cit., pp. 49-51.
