Ship Log of Ship 16 Atlantis Famous German Cruiser WWII Supporting U-Boats
Volume 1 of 2 Only. Would make a great gift for a special occasion, or keep for yourself. A fasci n ating read! The offering here is Volume 1 of 2 volumes. So, covers the period from 12/19/39 to 2/11/41 only. That would be in German. This is a translated to English version of the original log. That translation was most likely done by the US Navy with that being noted on the front cover of the log. We can do that by being a dealer in artwork for over 40 years, better controlling our acquisition costs, keeping commission costs low (if applicable). Foxing or brown spotting to the pages. The movie was called, "Under Ten Flags" and starred Van Heflin and Charles Laughton. Being a WWII movie buff, I find it interesting that I don't recall ever seeing it on television. The book is 13.5" tall, by 8-5/8" across, by 1.5 wide. This 1st volume of the log is 384 pages in length. Let us know if you have any questions or need additional pictures. Don't be shy to make an offer, we are always open to reasonable suggestions. Atlantis was commanded by Kapitän zur See Bernhard Rogge, who received the Oak Leaves to the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross. She was sunk on 22 November 1941 by the British cruiser HMS Devonshire. Atlantis was second only to Pinguin in tonnage destroyed, and had the longest raiding career of any German commerce raider in either world war. She captured highly secret documents from Automedon. A version of the story of Atlantis is told in the film Under Ten Flags with Van Heflin appearing as Captain Rogge. The pictures provided both complement and supplement the listing description, so please look at them very closely as well.
