I welcome comments and emails, but please note that for various reasons I don’t like to offer an opinion on the value or authenticity of zeppelin covers or other items of airship memorabilia.

Larry,

I don’t know if you received any interest regarding your covers. I may be interested. I’m a collector in upstate New York. You can contact me @ tweixlmannjr@stny.rr.com if you still have them.
