GRACE LINE INC.

Santa Paula’s photograph confirms the funnel, whose band and top are described as equal. Panama Mail used the same funnel, although Brown 1929 also gives it a separate design and flag. New York & Pacific used the G90 flag with a slightly different funnel, which Rosanoski suggests may explain its appearance under Grace.

Harnack’s 1938, 1949, 1959 and 1964 texts give G90 while the illustrations show G241 with blue orle and letters, without explaining the discrepancy. Ships & the Sea 1938 notes a change from G90.

Almanacco 1925 makes the flag letters black. National Geographic’s version has serif letters, one of the sources used for the FOTW illustration.

National Geographic makes the diamond nearly reach the flag’s edges; Rosanoski considers that possibly closer to the actual flag than either of his G89 or G241 versions.
