Zeppelin - Yesterday and Tomorrow


sub titled: The history of the German blimps from Friedrichshafen to Frankfurt

Excellent selection of images of Zeppelin craft including the ill-fated Hindenburg which was to crash
the following year condemning airship travel to the margins of aviation development.

Among the great photographs is also a picture with two Zeppelins "Graf Zeppelin" and "Hindenburg"
over the Berlin Brandenburger Tor / Brandenburg Gate.
The first time since 1918 where two airships circle over Berlin at the same time!

Further pictures include Der Graf, Dr. Eckener, Dr Durr, LZ 1, LZ 3, New York, Lakehurst, Tokyo [Japan],
Los Angeles, Shenandoah, Pernambuco [Brazil], Rio de Janeiro, Cpt. Lehmann, Police President Christiansen,
Knut Eckener, LZ 129 ...
