From the Neiman-Marcus 2005 Holiday Catalog:
ZEPPELIN
A famous first of German ingenuity when it was launched in 1900, the iconic mode of transportation from the genius of Count Ferdinand Graf von Zeppelin has achieved another milestone. We are offering the opportunity to be the first to privately own a modern Zeppelin NT. Re-engineered with the best new technology, your Zeppelin is the first modern airship licensed to carry commercial passengers. It floats with safe, nonflammable helium contained in an inner envelope of high-strength multilayered material. The roomy cabin features panoramic window views of the clouds above and sights below and can comfortably accommodate 12 passengers, a pilot and a flight attendant. It can achieve 70 knots and has a flight duration of up to 24 hours. This eight-ton sky gem is approximately 230 feet long, 60 feet wide and 53 feet tall. ($10,000,000.00, page 16.)
