I don't have anything Graf Zepplin related to share, but is there something in particular that you're looking for?

I don't know much about its history. Is that a signed portrait of the captain/pilot?

I don't think it's an original autograph, but the picture is that of Dr. Hugo Eckener. Another copy can be found here:

This is the only Graf Zeppelin cover in my collection. I do have a menu from ~1935 but it is safely packed away somewhere (I hope...)
