 2.5.1936 N° 12 (Mi. Zeppelin Specialised), LZ 129
Nordamerikafahrt cover sent registered to Bucyrus, Ohio and posted by a Swiss sender (address on the flap indicates he was from Basel) from Lörrach, Germany (Lörrach is the nearest German border town from Basel, being only a few kilometres away),
franked with both Hindenburg Zeppelin stamps of 1936 (Michel 606-607) as well as a pair of 15pf airmail stamps, all tied by Lörrach c.d.s., with zeppelin flight cachet in red alongside and American transit and arrival postmarks on the back, Lörrach
is not listed as a place of origin for this flight in the Michel Specialised Catalogue, thus this cover could be correctly described as "unlisted" (although, for accuracy, Switzerland is listed as a place of origin for this flight but that of course
refers to covers with Swiss frankings), rare and possibly even unique, vf(Image 1)
