1937 International News photograph of the Hindenburg in flames at Lakehurst, New Jersey. One of the seminal events of the 20th century, the image evokes tons of emotion and reminds us of the frailty of life as well as the technological advancements that made it possible to capture this event on film. A bold and deep image in fine condition, this is fresh out of the King Features newspaper archive and was the example they used in publication after they ran stories in 1937 about the event! One of the finest specimens of this image we have ever handled!
