Postcards by R. S. Clements

The airship USS LOS ANGELES was a "showboat" during her time. Here are a few of samples from a series of postcards that circulated during the late twenties and early thirties. These postcards, by R. S. Clements, depict the  ZR3, or LZ126 as she was designated, at the Naval Air Station in Lakehurst, New Jersey. They are highly collectible.
