1. The following example was sent from OFFENBURG (BAVARIA) to LINDAU im BODENSEE (Lindau on Lake Constance) on 23rd Jul 1932 and is addressed to The tourist office or spa administration. The final destination of Lindau is nice as Ferdinand Graf von Zeppelin was made an honourary citizen of the city of Lindau and the image on the card features a Zeppelin airship which was based on Lake Constance.

The message on the reverse side is from a Henry Maurer who is intending to spend two weeks on vacation in Lindau, and is requesting travel brochures so that he can choose his accomodation. His emphasis is on good food.
