An eye-catching Art Deco image in which the Hindenburg, a Lufthansa Fokker airplane and one of the ships in the Hapag Line (the heart and soul of German transportation technology) are proudly displayed before the public. Wiertz has not only depicted the impressive vehicles themselves, but also a visual travelogue from the soaring skyscrapers of Manhattan, past the mountains and palm trees of South America, to the silhouetted sights of Germany. This is the rare Spanish version. Airline Artistry p. 31 (var).
