we learn that the Palestine Maritime Lloyd launched its maritime traffic between Haifa and Constantza - via Istanbul - in 1934:

The company and its two ships (S. S. Mount Zion & S. S. Mount Carmel) were Jewish owned and operated under these principles: "The company [would] involve itself in the process of the building of the country; Company must be owned by Jewish interests; Ships will be under 'Hebrew' flag; Crews will be Jewish; Ships will be supplied by local products."
Enjoy the coverage and the expressive posters, photographs and documents!
