Engineers at an airship works, 1937

In a hall hung with the skeleton of a large frame, two young men in white coats and ties and an older worker in a dark jacket lean over a triangular lattice girder; one holds a small instrument against a fitting while the others watch. The archive record places the scene in airship production. In 1937 the only rigid airship being built in Germany was LZ 130, at the Zeppelin works in Friedrichshafen; after the Hindenburg burned at Lakehurst in May, the company planned to fill it with helium, which the United States in the end refused to sell.
