Aug 26 1929 LZ127 Los Angeles to Lakehurst, 6 stamps

Historic 1929 Graf Zeppelin cover flown from Los Angeles to Lakehurst aboard the LZ127 during its first round-the-world flight. This striking example is franked with six U. S. postage stamps, including two $1.30 Zeppelin stamps (C14), both cleanly postmarked August 26, 1929. Bold purple globe cachet on front and green Zeppelin-shaped marking on reverse, with Lakehurst arrival backstamp. Typewritten address to Longview, Washington. A well-preserved and visually impressive item from one of the most famous flights in aviation history.
