Messageries Maritimes (sometimes known as MesMar) was a French merchant shipping company from 1851 to 1977. The company started by operating ships on routes to the Middle East, and in 1871 saw its golden age during the period of French colonial expansion with ships serving the Mediterranean, Black, and Red seas.

Artist: L. K. Derryx

Important Added Info: Note that we have only once before auctioned an example of this poster! Also note that this poster is promoting a contest by Messageries Maritimes and Le Jour newspaper for a trip to Greece aboard the cruise ship, the SS Champollion. The SS Champollion was a French ocean liner built during the 1920s. During World War II (WWII) it served as a troop ship before resuming commercial service in 1947. On December 22, 1952, Champollion ran aground off Beirut due to a navigation error in heavy seas and broke up.

Condition: very good. The poster was never folded. It has a few creases and tiny tears along portions of some edges but otherwise it is in pretty nice condition!
