A complicated 'gravure' printing process is replicated, which results in the sharpest lines, words and symbols even on the smallest of globes. Centuries ago globes were made by gluing copperplate printed gores on a plaster finished papier-mâché core, and this application method has been resurrected and continued by AM. All globes are handmade from specially reproduced paper gores.

Twelve sections are hand glued onto a pastic (for small globes) or papier-mâché (for large globes) sphere.
