1937 Horizontal photograph of the famed airship Hindenburg as it is completely engulfed in flames on the landing strip in Lakehurst, New Jersey. One of the most tragic and important moments of the era, the flames rage as onlookers ran for safety and others stood helplessly and prayed. An original image from Acme and stamped on the back with a full paper. A tremendous condition image that is a poignant reminder of the frailty of human life. Condition and quality are both outstanding!
