To Finland Steamship Co..


This undated brochure was issued for the summer of 1930. It can be dated because of two circumstances:
1) an excerpt of a letter to the line telling of a visit to Finland during the summer of 1929 and
2) the fact that the Finland Line's two vessels on the Finland-U.K. route collided
outside the Danish east coast in fog on December 19, 1930,
with the loss of many lives as well as the Oberon, only built in 1925.
Survivors were taken onboard the Arcturus.

The Genealogical Society of Finland's website has photos and more information
on the Arcturus and Oberon and other ships of the Finland Line.

You may use my images on another website.
Then please credit them as being from the collection of Björn Larsson,
and preferably provide a link to my Introduction page.
Thank you!
