Clippers of the CloudsIn the early 20th Century, German Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin pioneered the creation of rigid, lighter-than-air craft capable of long distance flights. During World War One they were adapted for military use as long range bombers wreaking havoc upon Great Britain from their lofty positions high above the clouds where fixed-winged fighters could not reach them. After the war, Zeppelins became pleasure ships utilized in luxury Trans-Atlantic Flights and were highly popular.The Golden Era of the airship was the 1930s, the same period as that of the pulps and it is no surprise their romantic images would inspire pulp writers of the time.
