The Downing of the Schütte-Lanz SL 11

A propaganda postcard from 1916 depicting the downing of the German Schütte-Lanz SL 11 airship by Lieutenant Leefe Robinson of the Royal Flying Corps.
This was the first time that a German airship on a bombing mission over Britain had been shot down.
The airships were targeting populated area and had killed many civilians.
