PAUL THEODORE ETBAUER (1892-1975) ZEPPELIN - FARHTEN / HAMBURG - AMERIKA LINIE. Circa 1930.
33x24 inches, 83 3/4x61 cm. Muhlmeister & Johler, Hamburg.

In addition to her Transatlantic runs, the Graf Zeppelin also did sightseeing tours around Europe. That she was run by the Hamburg-America Line is reinforced here by the small image of the ocean liner visible on the water. Etbauer designed a number of posters for the Hamburg-America Line. German version.
