Re: zeppelin
Both Ned and Templehoff are correct on this, although the LZ127 had push propellers the later model had pull props, its now just a matter as to which one was being depicted in the fantasy badge, which doesnt really matter because its a piece of cow dung

Well I don't see a 'II' after the name......
But looking at the badge, the cabin appears smaller than on the LZ 127, so it's gotta be the LZ 130.

Not originally (it was launched in 1928 I think?) but later on it definitely had 'em.

Re: zeppelin
Ned, this is much more complicated than I thought!!!
When picturing these things, I always have an image of L-127 in my mind's eye.
Now it appears, I need an appreciation for the appearance of the "Graf Zeppelin II"!
