Port & River — 1956
Journal of Commerce - British India Line number 40,207
Special edition of the Journal of Commerce and Shipping telegraph, published to commemorate the centenary of the British India Steam Navigation Company Ltd. The shipping line was originally founded, as the Calcutta and Burmah Steam Navigation Co. Ltd, to take advantage of the collapse of the old East India Comapny's shpping activities. As usual, these journals were part company history and part advertisment for the shipping line.
