Just had a funny moment reading the thread title before I clicked it. Not sure if you can buy an actual Zeppelin nowadays (just kidding).

The Zeppelin stuff really is fascinating though.

Occasionally, you can pick up pieces like. rivits and struts. They are grossly overpriced IMHO. There have also been cool awards constructed like table medals: the British made a table medal of Lz15 bringing down from aluminum used in the construction of the airship as recognition of their success and achievement. Some good things. There are lots of copies too especially with badges and insignia so you always need to be extra vigillant.
