Formed in 1921 using a blue flag with a white
somewhat squashed "O" going by the Collectors
Corner website cap badge which records it in the name of Verkebäcks
Ångfartygs A/B which was operated by Olsson. After he died in 1931
this company was inherited by his son Ruben [or Reuben] who continued
to use the flag operating under his own name though US Navy 1961
[8] still records it under his father's company.

Later editions of Brown for 1929 [10],
1934 [11] and 1943 show the
diamond with concave sides. There is a
connection with O. A. Brodin.
