Greetings,
 
Not in the Christmas spirit yet?  Well, head on down (up) to your
local U.S. Government Document Collection and check out "Surface
of the Earth Icosahedron Globe", by the National Geophysical Data
Center.  (Suptdoc #: C 55.2:Ea 7/24).
 
It's a cutout of that wonderful computer-generated image showing
color shaded relief by Peter W. Sloss.
 
After you make a color-copy (no defacing of GovDocs material) of
the cutout, fold it up and make a neat little globe (about 3") and
hang it up as holiday (or ANYday) decoration.
 
Aloha and Mele Kalikimaka,
