ship: Groveland, built 1901, torpedoed 1917. Flag yellow bordered red, red "F". The ship was originally built for the SS CO Fawcitt (GB); I guess it kept the houseflag when it came into Swedish hands.

Lloyds 1912 [llo12] show the flag being used by Charles H. Ford of West Hartlepool which is where the Fawcitt S.S. Co. was based. They also show for same entry as the flag being used by J.P. Jönsson of Landscrona which seems to suggest a connection between Ford and Jönsson.

Grängesberg-Oxelösund Trafik A/B began operating steamship in 1899 as Rederi A/B Lulea-Ofoten which flew a white swallowtail with a smallish canton of the Swedish colours and on the middle of the field were the black letters "L-O". By the early 1970s the name was changed to Gränges A/B and they ceased as shipowners in 1978.

ship M/T Margit Reuter, built 1945, upphuggen 2001; seven fly- diagonal stripes of blue and white.

Reut & Reuter, Onsala.
Ole Andersen, 2000-Sep-20

Hakon A Reuter. Rederi A/B Reuter was one of their subsidiaries. The actual design of their flag is uncertain as apart from this version which is nearly supported by the Collectors Corner cap badge which does not have any white at upper hoist or lower fly, US Navy 1961 shows white with 3 narrow blue diagonal bands whilst Talbot Booth 1942 and 1944 show 4 white and 3 blue bands of equal width but reverse the direction to per bend i.e. from upper hoist to lower fly.
