I'm 98% convinced it's Scott AFB. I would scan a photo I have that shows some of the interior, but I've got a test tomorrow and this is just a brief break from studying.

I think those last two might even be your blimps in the pictures!
The book is Scott Air Force Base 1917 ~ 1950 (official yearbook?). I picked up the book at an estate sale recently. If anyone is interested in the book send me an email. I would be happy to send it to a good home if someone would find it useful. There are a number of other pictures of rare aircraft in it. It is in good condition.
