Baltimore Mail Steamship

Baltimore Mail Line, officially the Baltimore Mail Steamship Company, was a short-lived American transatlantic shipping company that operated primarily as a mail carrier with limited passenger service from 1930 to 1937. It provided weekly sailings between the U.S. ports of Baltimore, Maryland, and Norfolk, Virginia, and the European ports of Le Havre, France, and Hamburg, Germany, with calls sometimes including Southampton or Bremen. The line was notable for its one-class (tourist-class) passenger accommodations on converted cargo ships, offering affordable transatlantic travel during the early years of the Great Depression.
