    USS Shenandoah.

    Thanks Buff 11. We'll add that to the catalog record. I do want to point out that at the time this photo was taken, it was referred to as the ZR-1. It wasn't renamed the USS Shenandoah until October of 1923.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Shenandoah_(ZR-1) "USS Shenandoah was the first of four United States Navy rigid airships. It was constructed during 1922–1923 at Lakehurst Naval Air Station, and first flew in September 1923. It developed the U.S. Navy's experience with rigid airships and made the first crossing of North America by airship. On the 57th flight, Shenandoah was destroyed in a squall line over Ohio in September 1925."
