The company was formed in 1896 and operated sailing vessels until around
1910 when they became shipbrokers and as such they have continued to the
present day. Lloyd 1904 and 1912 show a red and white banded flag in line
with that shown here but the company
website shows a flag image which has the bands equal, the diamond a
lot larger and the small "o" as vertical dash with top and bottom ends
angled per bend sinister.
