About the Item

A beautiful poster produced around 1950, showing the various dirigible balloons that contributed to the conquest of the air. Indeed, the discovery of balloons revolutionized our relationship with the sky and terrestrial space, bringing cities closer together and changing our perspective of the earth. In the early years of the First World War, airships were known for their majestic presence in the skies, and were icons of a country's power and prestige. They were mainly used as reconnaissance and transport craft. Aviation - Education Types of airships: Patrie Zeplin Parseval
