Greetings,
My apologies for not including the shipping list number for the
icosahedron globe "ornament".  I've been so spoiled with the speed,
efficiency, and hard work of our GovDocs crew at the UH at Manoa's
Hamilton Library, that I forget sometimes some others on the
continent may be a little behind in processing shipping lists and
GPO items  d:)) <-- BIG smiley here!
 
Anyhow, that neat globe/ornament was received on shipping list
96-0007-P, of 10/05/95.  Supt.Doc no. C 55.2 : EA 7/24
Temp record exists on Marcive.

An additional hint when putting together your globe, do use tape
or rubber cement as the instructions specify.  I used white glue
and managed to wind-up with messy sticky fingers and glue all over
my worktable.  You will also avoid "painting yourself into a corner".
If you don't understand, YOU WILL!
 
Good luck on finding your shipping lists and ornaments.  Let me know
how your globe comes out!
 
Mele kalikimaka!!  Happy holidays!
