This is a stunning and very are original vintage travel poster issued by Kristiansands Dampskibsselskap (KDS) to promote their ferry line between Kristiansand, Norway to Hirtshals, Denmark. The text says 5 hours at sea, a sea journey with the MS Skagerak.
MS Skagerak was built in 1939 by Ålborg Værft A/S, Ålborg, Denmark. The ship has short time span in traffic as a passenger carrier. MS Skagerak was requisitioned by Die Deutsche Kriegsmarine in 1940 and used as mine laying ship. It was torpedoed and sunk in 1944 outside Egersund, Norway.
