i´m looking for any postal stuff in connection with the following ships within the specific given timerange:

sirius (april 1838)
great western (1838-39 und 1843)

at the given timelines record atlantic crossings by these ships took place ("blue ribbond". i´m looking for any letters or postcars from "blue ribbond" crossings, where my interest is both in the stamps as well as in the postcard text (people telling about "good weather", "rough sea" or whatever...)

if you might be willing to preserve me with scans of such collectibles please get in touch with me by mail.

greetings from germany peter schmelzle

Here is a scan of a cover that I sold some time ago on eBay. It covers t= he time of May 1935 to June 1935 on the S.S. Normandie (inaugural voyage). I= t went both ways from France to NY and back. Don't remember if it had contents. http://tloepp.home.mindspring.com/covers/ normandie.html somewhere I have some Bremen covers but can't promise to find them soon.
