What is true about globes they show the true shapes of the continents and oceans or they are like aerial photographs?
Neither.
They are usually not at all like aerial photographs since they show geopolitical features - including things like place names. You would be hard pressed to find a place name in a true aerial photograph - except perhaps for Hollywood!
Also, the shapes that they show for continents and oceans are approximate rather than the true shapes.

What is the value of a 1936 Cram's unrivaled terrestrial globe?
The value of your globe depends largely on the mounting as well as condition. Cram's globes manufactured pre WW2 (as yours)are still relatively common and range in value from $30 for a standard model to around $1000 for the most ornate piece. If the globe has regular colored oceans (blue-green) and a standard plain mount (dowel through the globe and a base) it's value is of the least. As the mounting becomes more ornate, the price goes up. Standard globes with half or full meridians range between $50 and $150. Two of Cram's models, most in demand by globe collectors,will be of highest value: The 10.5 inch illuminated glass globe with yellow oceans, which has a serpent finished in bronze and copper accents as a base. This globe, in good condition can have a value between $800 and exceeding $1000. Another model is the globe with silver colored oceans. Based on how ornate the mounting is, the globe will have a value of several hundred dollars.
