Our Item#: 111182
Brazilian-franked cover flown on the Graf Zeppelin LZ127 airship's flight from South America (Brazil). Slightly worn, very good condition, as per scans. '17 CV EUR120 for printed matter rate (Drucksachen) -- but this is registered and unlisted as such. Even better, 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.
