Excelsior : Deutscher Luftschiffermarsch mit Text zum mitsingen : für Pianoforte
A 1913 German piano march sheet music published in Leipzig by Carl Rühle's Musik-Verlag, composed by H. Necke with lyrics by Carl Rühle and dedicated to Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin, meant for singing along at the piano. The cover shows a large airship drifting over a pale sky above bold black lettering, with a green and cream Art Nouveau border, a restrained palette of muted teal, tan and rust, and a poster-like arrangement of title and airship that a designer could borrow for vintage aviation graphics.
