Poster made around 1923. The route map of the European route and the main ports of call are shown. (Yokohama, Kobe, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Singapore, Colombo, Suez, Naples, Marseille, London) The main ports of call for ocean-going vessels in the United Kingdom are Liverpool, Plymouth, Southampton, and Dover, and the right to enter the port of London up the Thames. Nippon Yusen, which has the right to load, was a special existence. (Currently, the Port of London is rarely used) It was printed at a print shop in London, and it is possible that the design was also done at that print shop. It is the Hakone Maru commissioned in 1921. The author is unknown, but it is a design that can be seen at a glance that the poster with the background of Asahi made in 1908 is used as a motif.Source: https://www.ocean-note.com/SHOP/P1914NYK-P1a.html see also https://www.ocean-note.com/SHOP/DA-V2065.html
Lost? A blog that had deck plan, matchbooks, breakfast and lunch menus: https://blog.ytk.co.jp/cruise/%E6%A8%AA%E6%B5%9C%E9%80%9A%E4%BF%A1/entry-549.html
Google Translate: "Mr. Kuroda seemed to have a very careful personality, starting with the receipt of the inn where he stayed before boarding, telegrams, deck plans on board, schedules, menus, activity programs on board, and other materials distributed daily on board. It was put together in a file. It is a very valuable material for understanding the inside of the ship at that time, and the curator of the museum must be happy to cry when he sees it. "
