SPECIAL FRENCH LINE CENTENARY MAGAZINE FROM 1955

A superb large sized magazine celebrating the centenary of the French Line shipping company which contains almost 30 pages and is in a great condition


[The Compagnie Générale Transatlantique (shortened to "CIE. GLE. TRANSATLANTIQUE", or CGT, and commonly named "Transat"), known overseas as the French Line, was a shipping company established in 1861 as an attempt to revive the French merchant marine, the poor state of which was painfully highlighted during the Crimean War of 1856. The company's first vessel, the SS Washington, undertook her maiden voyage on 15 June 1864.]
