Weber Costello & Co.
acquired the A. H. Andrews & Co. globe business in 1896. The firm became Weber Costello in 1909 based in Chicago. The firm boasted in 1922: “The manufacture of globes requires skilled, experienced workmen, and the most accurate machinery. We have for this work the largest and best appointed establishment in the world. We have had forty-one years’ experience in globe manufacture. There are no globes made anywhere, by anyone, that equal our product.”
They were a huge supplier of school globes and sold a large variety of globes from around 1907 to the early 1970s. The firm went to say that their globe maps were “made by the greatest map makers in the world, G. W. Bacon & Co., London, England, and W. & A. K. Johnston, Edinburg, Scotland.
