Cheers Yingyang, so that's where my post was. Remember being told about the Zeppelins doing a courtesy visit to UK before the war and they sailed up and down the docks showing themselves off to all and sundry, same with Liverpool docks, the Mersey front, London docks and all other strategic sites. Turns out they were also taking surveillance photos ready for when it kicked off. My old man watched the Zepp from up by what is now Our Lady's. When I was a kid there were lots of bomb damaged buildings and areas still about. Some parts of the town look similar now.
My Uncle Joe Balshaw took this snap, undated, of a zeppelin, probably from Rock Ferry where he lived. Actual photo size is 2.5 x 1.5inches on Kodak 127 film. Must be from that era as he died in 1922.
