Our Item#: 112134
Original cover flown on the Graf Zeppelin airship's 1936 Suedamerikafahrt / South American flight. '17 CV EUR320. Slightly worn, good condition. This is from the estate of the nephew of Oberingenieur Karl Beuerle, a lead mechanic on the Zeppelin. A long-time airman, having survived serving in various WWI Zeppelin airships, he was with the Graf from the start (we have several pioneer usages as well!). We were lucky enough to purchase the entire Zeppelin collection of the nephew, who took all of "Onkel Karl's" correspondence and added to it with many further flights (such as this one).
