i have found a model-plan from the 30s at the flea market;-)

it is from the royal post of monaco ( wood and for carriage or cars) with a emblaim from NDL = Norddeutscher Lloyd
in bremen city for can see the headbuilding
and in the port of BREMERHAVEN you can found some building with the sign NDL to

The attached leaflet from July 1962 was forgotten in a book on Norddeutscher Lloyd that I bought from E-bay ten years ago. It refers to a wonderful model of Bremen IV created by two German engineers many years ago. It is dedicated to my friend britanis from Cologne/Köln in Germany.
Zu britanis mit herzlichen Grüssen

Published by LIFE magazine, a picture of BREMEN being launched.

At the end of the war, the ship's keel remained and it was taken to Weser river and scuttled. Her remains are said to be visible at low tide.
