ALL.

The flag is divided diagonally into red hoist and fly quarters and white top and bottom quarters. In the centre, black serifed “A” over “LL” appears within a white roundel edged black. Sources disagree on its shape: A355 has a circle and A922 an oval. Later Brown editions and German sources more clearly favour the oval. NJK’s statement that the circle was correct may instead refer to the DLL funnel.

Several sources give the Deutsche Levante Linie funnel. Jordan describes a house flag with black “DLL”, but Rosanoski rejects this: the other sources show white letters on a black circle.

NJK states that Atlas was operated by Bock, Goddefroy & Co., acquired by Hamburg Süd in 1956, and that Hamburg Süd’s funnel and flag replaced individual schemes in 1969. Rosanoski connects this account with A357, while dating its Mobil source between 1958 and 1963.

The FOTW illustration of 11 April 2009 reversed the quarter colours, although its written description correctly gave red at hoist and fly and white above and below. Klaus-Michael Schneider amended it on 2 July 2010. Rosanoski considers the ring in the table-flag source to be oval.
