EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print showcases an intriguing piece of aviation history: the French and English timetable and rate chart for the transatlantic maiden voyage of the Hindenburg airship. Dated 1936, this 4 x 8 inch document was published by Deutsche Zeppelin-Reederei, the German transportation company behind the iconic Zeppelin airships. The Hindenburg, known for its impressive size and advanced technology, represented the pinnacle of airship design in the 1930s. The timetable and rate chart offer a fascinating glimpse into the logistics and costs of transatlantic air travel during this era. Passengers could choose from various classes, each with its own pricing structure. First class passengers enjoyed the most luxurious accommodations and amenities, while economy class offered more affordable fares. The chart also includes departure and arrival dates, as well as the expected duration of the voyage. The Hindenburg's maiden transatlantic voyage began on May 6, 1936, when the airship set sail from Frankfurt, Germany, bound for Lakehurst, New Jersey, USA. This historic journey marked the beginning of regular transatlantic airship service, offering an alternative to the traditional ocean liner travel. The Hindenburg made 12 round trips between Europe and North America before its tragic end in 1937. This foldable print is an essential addition to any aviation, history, or transportation-themed collection. Its intricate details and captivating historical significance make it a must-have for enthusiasts and collectors alike.
