Description
The hemispheres are filled with two airplanes soaring through the skies, and in the oceans there are ships, a whale, Neptune, and a couple old-fashioned sea monsters.
The surround, on a field of burgundy, features in top and bottom corners natives of North and South America meeting the Europeans, and scenes of Asians and Africans. Between the hemispheres, there is an ornate compass rose and an inset zooming in on the flight routes available in Western Europe. Behind the title banner, there are monuments from some of the great cities of Europe.
