CLYDE-MALLORY LINES.

The star derives from Mallory and the blue bands from Clyde. Lloyd Reedereiflaggen 1933 instead shows Clyde’s earlier flag under Clyde-Mallory. Talbot-Booth records use of the Mallory flag from 1932 to 1936 before its relinquishment to the parent company. Brown 1951 attributes the combined livery to the associated New York & Cuba Mail Steamship Co. A tapered version was once placed under Britain on FOTW; the company was American. Rosanoski presumes that this version derives from National Geographic’s slightly tapered illustration.
