Note: the scan makes it appear more 'pink' than it actually is. Ref: 01.04.1935 1st April 1935 Hamberg America Linie Official envelope of the Hamburg-Amerikanische Packetfahrt-Actien-Gesellschaft (HAPAG), aka the Hamburg America Line. Featuring a lesser seen (rare?) 'pink' 1 Pf Hindenburg Medallion stamp. Note: the scan makes it appear more 'pink' than it actually is. Ref: 01.04.1935 See 29.08.1938 (E.S. Patria ) HAPAG Hamburg America Line The Hamburg-Amerikanische Packetfahrt-Actien-Gesellschaft (HAPAG), known in English as the Hamburg America Line, was a transatlantic shipping enterprise established in Hamburg, in 1847. Among those involved in its development were prominent citizens such as Albert Ballin (director general), Adolph Godeffroy, Ferdinand Laeisz, Carl Woermann, August Bolten, and others, and its main financial backers were Berenberg Bank and H. J. Merck & Co. It soon developed into the largest German, and at times the world's largest, shipping company, serving the market created by German immigration to the United States and later, immigration from Eastern Europe. On 1st September 1970, after 123 years of independent existence, HAPAG merged with the Bremen-based North German Lloyd to form Hapag-Lloyd AG. The New York of the Hamburg-Amerikanische Packetfahrt-Actien-Gesellschaft (HAPAG) was the fourth ship of the Albert Ballin class for the North Atlantic service. Built like her sisters by Blohm & Voss, she entered service in 1927. In the 1930s she was considered the flagship of the Hamburg shipping company. On 3rd April 1945, the 'New York' was sunk in one of the air raids on Kiel. She was raised during the cleanup of the harbour, but was scrapped in 1949. Ref: 18/7 The Imperator and the Vaterland were briefly in service before the First World War. In 1914, the Vaterland was caught in port at Hoboken, New Jersey at the outbreak of World War I and interned by the United States. She was seized, renamed Leviathan after the declaration of war on Germany in 1917, and served for the duration and beyond as a troopship. In 1917, its liner Allemannia was 'torpedoed by German submarine near Alicante'; two people were lost. After the war, the Vaterland / Leviathan was retained by the Americans as war reparations. In 1919 Vaterland 's sister ships – Imperator and the unfinished Bismarck – were handed over to the allies as war reparations to Britain. They were sold to the Cunard Line and White Star Line respectively, and renamed Berengaria and Majestic . A ship chain in Mountain Lakes, New Jersey is identified by the historic society as belonging to either the Vaterland or Imperator . It was acquired in 1921, likely during refurbishments, and now lines a portion of the Boulevard. In 1939, the HAPAG liner St. Louis was unable to find a port in Cuba, the United States, or Canada willing to accept the more than 950 Jewish refugees on board and had to return to Europe. On 9th April 1940, when German warships attacked Kristiansand, Norway, during Operation Weserübung (the opening assault of the Norwegian Campaign), the HAPAG freighter Seattle sailed into the crossfire between the warships and Norwegian coastal artillery. She was holed and sunk, and her crew briefly became prisoners of war. According to a 1940 US intelligence report compiled by the US War Department, Louis Classing, general manager of the Hamburg-America in Havana was identified as a 'well-known nazi agent' who 'imported moving pictures for propaganda purposes to be shown at local theatres'. The Hamburg America Line lost almost the entirety of its fleet twice, as a result of World Wars I and II. In 1970, the company merged with its longstanding rival, Norddeutscher Lloyd of Bremen, to establish the present-day company Hapag-Lloyd. In the post-war years, HAPAG rebuilt its fleet and focused on cargo container transport. In 1970, the container shipping companies HAPAG and North German Lloyd (NDL) merged into Hapag-Lloyd AG to form one of the world's biggest container shipping companies. In 2008, Hapag-Lloyd was acquired by the City of Hamburg and a group of private investors, the Albert Ballin Consortium.
