The Cram Company Story
The George F. Cram Company story dates back to 1867 when George Cram, only two years after fighting for the Union in the Civil War, joined his uncle's business of making city and state maps. In 1869 Cram became the first American publisher to produce a world atlas. The Cram name quickly became synonymous with accuracy and innovation. In 1932 the company expanded into manufacturing world globes. Today, the Cram company is considered one of the top leaders in the world globe industry and its globes are present in thousands of schools, homes, and offices around the world.
