UZICE JUGOSLOVENSKA LINIJSKA PLOVIDBA
Posted: Tue May 09, 2017 9:30 pm
This stamp issued by Yugoslavia in 1950 shows us a cargo vessel loading or discharging cargo alongside a quay in a port.
The funnel markings give that she is a ship of the Jugoslovenska Linijska Plovidba, Rijeka, some sources give that she is the HRVATSKA built in 1945 as the ST LAWRENCE VICTORY but the stamp clearly shows us a ship with a steel superstructure with a wooden wheelhouse, the HRVATSKA did not have a wooden wheelhouse, so I am sure she is not depict, by comparing photos on line of the Jugoslovenska Linijska Plovidba fleet I could not find a matching one. Mostly around the 1950s ships with wooden wheelhouses where not often more built, so it must be one around or before that time when the stamp was issued.
Yugoslavia 1950 5d sg 667, scott?
