NEW ZEALAND LINE

Beautiful poster of the RMS RANGATIRA, one of the passenger mail ships owned by the New Zealand Shipping Company Limited and operated on regular voyages from the UK to New Zealand via the Panama Canal. It was all over in 1969.

NEW ZEALAND Shipping in about 1960

Four old photographs by Michael Sutcliffe taken in Lyttelton, New Zealand, in about 1960, when Mr. Sutcliffe was a Purser on the magnificent Orient Line ORION of 1935. The Orient Line mailship can be seen in two of the photos which also include very interesting old tonnage from the Union Steamship Company of New Zealand, Fedreal Line and Hamburg Süd. Thanks to Michael for sharing his old photos...
