Description
GERMAN ZEPPELIN BOWL Ornate German porcelain bowl plates 9 1/2"" x 9 1/4"" x 2 1/4"" deep ca 1936-1937. The ivory-colored bowl bears an ornate gold decorative rim the logo of ""Deutsche Zeppelin-Reederei"" who owned and operated the Hindenburg and Graf Zeppelin and the monogram ""WB"". The bottom bears the name of maker ""Selb Bavaria Heinrich & Co."". Identical to the tableware used onboard the last great airships this may have been china made for the Wronsky Family in Berlin. Martin Wronsky (1877-1946) was a German aviation pioneer co-founder of IATA (International Air Traffic Association) founding director of Lufthansa and on the board of Zeppelin-Reederei. He was a close contact of Hermann Goering despite his Jewish family roots. Fine.
