This card was posted on board on May 17, 1929 by future Graf Zeppelin Captain Anton Wittemann and postmarked as received in Cuers, France the same day, after the airship made its forced landing at the French military field situated there. The card is addressed to Wittemann himself at his home address in Friedrichshafen. In addition to bearing Wittemann's distinctive handwriting, the card was signed by Airship Commander Hugo Eckener.
