Zeppelinanities: The airy humour of the Hun by H. M. Bateman
" Zeppelinanities. The airy humour of the Hun: a German air-raiders air-raising narrative illustrated by our caricaturist." This cartoon depicts the German zeppelin raid on London on 8 September 1915, the biggest air raid on Britain of the First World War. 15 high-explosive and 55 incendiary bombs were dropped on the city. Bateman re-tells verbatim the story which a German air-raider told the newspapers: that the hapless crew almost crashed into St. Paul s, and that they refrained from dropping bombs on the Houses of Parliament for fear of killing the families of Lloyd George and Herbert Asquith. Date: 1915
