 The Majestic 72 took a ride on the Hindenburg and was the first radio used in Zepplins...

Why does the veneer need replacing? If you just strip and refinish the top then you should be fine.. I dont see any damage to the original veneer...

  That's the Graf Zeppelin, not the Hindenburg, the Graf Zeppelin was built in the 1920s and was famous for circumnavigating the globe, hence why Grigsby-Grunow got involved as a publicity gimmick to promote their radios.
