USS Los Angeles

Built in Germany by the Zeppelin Airship Construction Company as the LZ-126, the helium from the USS Shenandoah was pumped into this craft, as there was insufficient helium available in the US at the time.

17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

Capturing History - The Majestic USS Los Angeles Soars Over Washington DC
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print transports us back to a defining era in aviation history. The awe-inspiring sight of the US Airship USS Los Angeles ZR3 gracefully gliding through the skies above the iconic monuments of Washington DC is truly mesmerizing. Originally known as LZ-126, this magnificent airship was meticulously crafted by Germany's renowned Zeppelin Airship Construction Company. However, due to limited helium resources in the United States at that time, it was ingeniously filled with helium from its predecessor, the USS Shenandoah. As we gaze upon this archival masterpiece captured by Central Press/Getty Images, we are reminded of both the technological marvels and international collaborations that shaped our world. The image perfectly encapsulates an era when airships symbolized progress and innovation. The silhouette of the USS Los Angeles against a backdrop of towering buildings evokes a sense of grandeur and ambition. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our relentless pursuit of conquering new frontiers. Transportation enthusiasts will appreciate how this photograph beautifully combines elements of finance, consumer products, and transportation itself. Its historical significance cannot be overstated; it represents not only an extraordinary feat but also marks an important milestone in American aviation history. Let this remarkable piece grace your walls as a reminder that dreams can indeed take flight – even amidst challenges – leaving an indelible mark on our collective memory for generations to come.
