Fragments of German Naval Airship L33. Eight fragments of the German Airship L33 (LZ 76) bought down at Little Wigborough in Essex on 24 September 1916. [1] A rectangular mahogany plaque (16cm x 12cm) on which is mounted a segment of L33 (2 pieces of duralumin riveted at the joint) in the form of St Andrew’s Cross. A small duralumin plaque below the centre reads “Zepp L33 Sep 24 1916”. VGC. [2] A rough-edged duralumin plate (5cm x 4cm) inscribed both sides. On the front is a beautifully executed emblem of the Royal Artillery, as seen on a Cap-badge; on the rear is an inscription “From Zep L33 to Peter Oct 3rd 1916”(sic). The letters “L33” are in a different font to the other engraving. Pierced at left and right edges, the piece is suspended on a loop of thread. [3] A small, neatly finished cross (27mm x 26mm) made of duralumin, in the shape of an “Iron Cross”. Pierced at the top to hang on a necklace or brooch, the cross is engraved “L33 24/9/16”, [4] A tiny segment of duralumin with a oval handwritten label reading “A portion of the framework of a Zeppelin which came down in Essex. 1916. The Crew Surrendered.” (Bocker’s crew was the only crew brought down over Essex which survived to surrender). [5] A partially oxidized fragment of Duralumin, (21cm x 2cm), one end torn, the other showing a rivet hole. 2 labels have been pasted to the upper surface. In neat capitals the two labels read “Zeppelin L33. Kapitan Lieutenant Bocker”(sic) and “Crash landed 24th September 1916. Little Wigborough”. [6] A small duralumin brooch (39mm x 14mm) in the shape of a Zeppelin, engraved in the centre “Zepp L33”. [7] A triangular piece of plywood (9cm x 8cm), marked in pencil on one side “L33 24/9/16”. [8] A small fragment of melted duralumin (4cm x 2cm) attached to a large cardboard label identifying it as a fragment from L33. Note: L33 was on her first mission, when she became one of two airships brought down on 24 September 1916. Commanded by Kapitan Alois Bocker, the target of L33 was London, and after dropping her bombs, she was hit by an Anti-Aircraft shell which caused considerable damage. Turning for home, L33 was attacked by night-fighters over Chelmsford in Essex. Despite throwing her guns and any excess equipment overboard, it became obvious that L33 was losing too much lifting gas, and could not return home. L33 came to earth near Little Wigborough in Essex. Deciding to set fire to the ship, Kapitan Bocker tried to evacuate a nearby cottage, but the inhabitants refused to answer the door. Eventually, Bocker set fire to the ship, formed up his crew and marched away. After meeting a couple of special constables, Kapitan Bocker and his crew were marched to Peldon Post office where the local constable formally arrested them. L33 was one of the R Class Zeppelins, and although her Captain set her alight, a great deal of information was gleaned from the wreckage in terms of construction techniques. Much of the learning was applied to the British R33 Class airship, although not necessarily with full understanding. See Plate 6
Six prints by Jan Balet A collection of 6 prints by the German American artist Jan Balet in the naïve style. All the prints are framed mounted and glazed (49cm x 43 cm) in blued-gilt frames. Scenes include: [1] A young lady (in an unfashionably short skirt) holding her bicycle gazing at a broken-backed Zeppelin, draped over an airship shed. [2.] Count von Zeppelin climbing out of his chauffeur driven car, outside the sheds at Freidrichshafen. Greeting him are 2 obsequeous gentlemen, and a little girl with a large bouquet of flowers. Behind the car, a stray dog is delivering a different greeting. [3] A copy of “Die Zeppeline des Jan Balet” [4] An early zeppelin flying over the floating shed on Lake Constance; in the foreground a uniformed official is standing in the stern of an official rowing boat communicating through a speaking trumpet with the zeppelin. [5] A broad expanse of fence, above which can be seen the top of an airship shed. A well-presented lady in her hat is bending over to peer through the keyhole of a door, marked “Eintritt verboten”. [6] Count von Zeppelin having a conference with several senior and heavily decorated officers, while standing under the stern of an early zeppelin. In the background is an open shed. Standing among the officers is a little boy in a sailor suit. A set of colourful and amusing pictures in the naive fashion Note: Jan Balet was born in 1913, and spent some years of his childhood living with his Grandparents in Freidrichshafen; he emigrated to the USA in 1938, where he became a commercial artist and illustrator. Balet returned to Europe in 1965.GC
