Description
Photograph of a view of the Graf Zeppelin dirigible at the Mines Field of the Los Angeles International Airport, 1929. The Graf Zeppelin nearly fills the upper half of the image, with its cabin at center and its envelope above. The side of the zeppelin reads "Graf Zeppel[?]". A large group of uniformed men stands in the field below the zeppelin, along with two seats that sit in the foreground. Anchor ropes for the zeppelin diagonally cross the lower right corner of the image.
