THE GREAT EASTERN SHIPPING CO. LTD.

AHB refers to promoter and financier Ardeshir Hormusji Bhiwandiwalla. LJC 1966 places the letters on a white diamond, a design also appearing as a funnel panel. Jag Vijay and a black-and-white photograph of Jag Darshan support the funnel. Rosanoski enlarged the drawn diamond slightly to fit the letters. Marinart describes black lettering but leaves the funnel’s base colour and top unspecified; Ocean Ships does not specify the letters’ colour, and LJC gives no top. Mitchell attributes it under Great Eastern Steam Navigation.

Nüsse’s table flag has the AHB letters on a square panel rather than a diamond. The older image appears red; the newer one looks more orange. Rosanoski considers orange, perhaps an air-sea-rescue shade difficult to reproduce photographically, more likely, but leaves the panel version’s place in the sequence unresolved.

Brown 1995 changes red to orange, makes the white diamond smaller and uses blue lettering, but reverses the field division to run from upper hoist to lower fly. Rosanoski says the actual division is per bend sinister and the diamond has no black outline.

The diamond logo appeared on the website from 1998, initially more reddish and distinctly orange by at least 2006. Rosanoski suspects enhancement to clarify the orange, perhaps darker or nearer air-sea-rescue orange in reality. He also thinks the logo’s diamond too small.

Funnel photographs of Jag Lok on 27 December 2006 and Jag Panna on 29 October 2007, and flags on Jag Pradip and Jag Prakash, document the photographic version. In the later discussion, using the spellings Jag Pranna and Jag Pradig, Rosanoski finds flag and funnel colours alike and the actual diamond larger than the logo’s but smaller than the funnel panel’s. He warns that the flag photograph may have been lightened; a close panel photograph appears more orange than distant or poorly lit views.
