also it seems like the camera is stopping on each locker door for some reason:
and sure you might say 'It's a picture' but the cam time (The shot time) on that pic is kinda strange...it hold even while the cam pans.
one says 'Go rebels'
and ha ha a dinosaur saying 'Shcool sux'
can anyone see what the writing is in hand writing also who that is in the pic?

i notice this got buried but ha ha there are only two pages on this sub so..
also you can't get the the 'Mad men' image so i'm downloading the episode.
The map of 'Florida' in the back is incorrect also and what's with the lines and coloring? it looks like either an 'exclusion zone' or a battle zone?
as the globe spins you can see Florida blurred but on the west coast there doesn't appear to be the 'spit' off California.
also obviously that land mass, which doesn't look like any 'label' as it is not symmetric and looks like a land mass with writing around it.
in the next scene have a look at the background pic:

"He's making us proud again"
does anyone know who that President is?
it sounds a lot like the theme of a current candidate "Lets make America great again"
which is hey i'm sure not an exclusive theme maybe it's just a coincidence...
has anyone seen the movie ( i'll download and watch soon) who was running in 76?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_presidential_election,_1976
so that is Ford in the picture?
but Reagan in 80's he used the actual same slogan:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Make_America_Great_Again
https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/22/4b/8a/224b8ab47ec0b7fda37b4995d5557bf3.jpg
just seems strange to be talking about all these changes now and the scene is an election theme with 'countdown' written.
also I looked up the movie on IMDB:
here is the clear top user review ha ha :
A Time Machine Trip Back To The Texas Summer Of 1976

That globe is clearly an actual globe and not created by their prop people. At least I hope because otherwise that would be a little dishonest for the prop person to pitch that they need to make an actual globe.
So then the question is who printed this. Who would be in the business of printing actual globes that weren't accurate.
It could be a way to not use someone else's map and to make it clear that you aren't. Maps are subject to IP and putting other people's imagery in movies may have more consequences than I would otherwise realize.
But the fact of people remembering such a thing is odd. Possibly they need to think something is there because that area I think is where you can get the furthest from any land mass. At least the pacific has islands in chains. In the idian ocean there is madigascar. A larger but still quite small Island closer to it inhabited (small by pacific standard), then two very very small islands to very north west of Austrailia, practically sand bars. That is it for the whole thing.

It's odd how they're similar in shape on both globes, despite obviously being different (versions?) of the same globe.
On the Mad Men globe, the Australian north coastline is depicted via the green portion. It also appears to show that Tasmania is connected to the mainland. Perhaps these discrepancies come from some form of retarded map/globe making copyright.
The Mad Men globe also appears to show other land masses to be connected when in fact they aren't. It's possible that this globe is an interpretation of what land masses looked like a long time ago when sea levels were lower.
Pre-commenting edit: Actually, it appears that the Mad Men globe might be a topographic globe. Check out this topographic world map. It shows a 'high point' off the west coast of Australia, which might be interpreted as it once being above sea-level if you subscribe to the aforementioned theory that the globe used in this scene is an interpretation of how our world once looked.
The Dazed and Confused globe (when you watch the clip) doesn't appear to have a key located elsewhere on the globe, so the chances of it being a guide/key to interpreting the globe are pretty high. It could also be a logo of the globe manufacturer.

I guess it's possible, though the landmass in question appears to be the same color as actual land, I've never seen a topographic globe render underwater features in the same color as land. In that map you linked, they are very dissimilar visually.
The logo theory is possible, except despite exhaustive searches, nobody has been able to produce a picture of a globe with a logo in that position which is similar in appearance to land. If this globe exists in our timeline, somebody should be able to find it.
The topographic theory I had combined both topographic aspects and that of an interpretation of what our globe once looked like. Hence the land masses connected along the north coast of Australia and the high point to the West bring shown as above water, when sea level was lower. It appears to be in the same location as the high point on that topo map. The similarity in shape on both globes is very interesting though.

a landmass exactly where a submerged continent once was.
Um, no. Zealandia, of which New Zealand is a part of, is on the southeast of Australia. The supposed mystery landmass you refer to and is shown by both these images is off the western coast of Australia. Not exactly what I would all exactly.

I am from Bismarck, ND. We learned about Lemurna as one of the continents in grade school. North America, South America, Africa, Asia, Europe, Lemurna, Australia, and Antarctica.
I can't believe this. I just started reading about the Mandela effect, and I know for a F-ing fact we learned the world with Lemurna in it. So I google mapped it, and WTFF??!! It is NOT there. This is incredibly screwed up, and messes with me. Did I imprint a fake continent onto the memory of all my grade school years. We had maps on the wall like most school classrooms did... World maps. It was there. I'm telling you.

Where was this continent? And what's in its place on the map now?
[–] Mitchilich 0 points 1 point 1 point (+1|-0) ago
The topic of this thread is the landmass west of Australia as shown on the globe in dazed and confused and some episode of madmen. That's what I'm talking about. It's called Lemurna. Or was. WTF. I don't know if I believe myself anymore. It can't be real that I learned this in school as I stated and now it's not even a part of reality, can it?

Edit: I can even remember this. It was a continent because it was surrounded by its own fault lines which extended out into the ocean. One of those separated it from Australia. The capital was Shuson, and it was kind of "third world-ish" like parts of Africa are. When we wasted food as a kid, my dad would get all pissed and told us when he was ported in Lemurna in the navy, some of them painted ships just for the navy's table leavings/ scraps. And we should be grateful to have food and not to was it, blah blah blah. Jesus jumped up and played the fiddle, huh? I can't believe this.
