The Hindenburg LZ-129 Reels

3D Reelz has produced an outstanding set of two reels with featuring 14 historic images of the famous airship Hindenburg LZ-129. The huge zeppelin, the largest ever built, comes alive right before your eyes.

You are looking at the airship flying past in 3-D, you are inside the LZ-129 as if you were there and you are reliving the final last seconds of the terrible disaster on May 6, 1937. See the bloodied survivors in total shock with horror still in their eyes. Watching these images in 3-D is a real emotional, historical adventure.

The rare images were carefully collected over many years were meticulously converted into stereoscopic 3-D and the results are stunning. "You have never seen or felt the Hindenburg's demise as the airship bursts into flames like you will experience on these reels," said Van Beydler, Editor of 3-D Review Online Magazine. "The disaster is shown for the first time in excellent converted 3-D from photos taken from several different angles. Some of the angles are images I have never even seen in 2-D before. The images are breathtaking and should be in every View-Master® or stereo enthusiasts collection. This set brings back the 'wow" factor of 3-D viewing for me. I kept looking at the disaster photos and seeing more details and emotions with every view."
