An Unfolded German Travel Poster (measures 33" x 46 3/4" [84 x 119 cm]) (Learn More) The Hamburg-Amerikanische Packetfahrt-Actien-Gesellschaft (HAPAG for short and referred to in English as Hamburg America Line or Hamburg-American Line) was a transatlantic shipping enterprise established in Hamburg, Germany in 1847. It soon developed into the largest German (and at times the world's largest) shipping company, serving the market created by the German immigration to the United States and later immigration from Eastern Europe. In 1970, after 123 years of independent existence, HAPAG merged with the Bremen-based North German Lloyd to form Hapag-Lloyd AG. Artist: Ottomar Anton Important Added Info: Note that like many German ships of that era, the Cordillera mentioned on this poster did not fare well in World War II. The ship was bombed and sunk in 1945, and then raised and ceded to the Soviet Union (and renamed Russ). We can't be sure which Oceana is mentioned on the poster (there were multiple). If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Condition: very good. The poster was never folded. It has tape on the back of the right border and that tape has bled through to the front, darkening the right border and slightly affecting the edge of the image (see our image). It had a small tear in the top and bottom borders and someone put a piece of tape on the back of the one in the top border, but other than the above defects, the poster is in really nice condition!
