Crash of USS Shenandoah (ZR-1), 3 September 1925


Local residents examining some of the airship's wreckage, soon after she crashed in southeastern Ohio.
Photographed by Dowling, Caldwell, Ohio.
Though the inscription on the photograph states that this view shows Shenandoah's control car, the structure in the center more closely resembles one of her engine cars.
