SS Bremen - Norddeutscher Lloyd Line - c 1933
This is a fabulous Norddeutscher Lloyd Line travel agency publicity print from a past era featuring one of the finest passenger liners of the 1930s, the SS Bremen. Launched in 1929, Bremen and her sister ship Europa were the fastest ships in the world from 1929 -1933, both winning multiple Blue Ribands in the 1930s.
The rendering depicts SS Bremen carrying the Nazi Flag at the stern, being led into New York harbor by a tugboat named “Fire Island”. "Fire Island" was in service off Long Island 1930-1942.
Would look great in a maritime environment.
