Advertising poster for the Ybarra y Cía. company, promoting the regular routes of its ships Cabo San Vicente and Cabo San Roque. Since the end of the 19^th century, this shipping line had offered routes going from the Mediterranean coast of Spain to France (more specifically, Marseille), the Atlantic coast, England and the Baltic. In addition, during World War I Ybarra y Cía. decided to open a regular line between Spain and the United States, and to add passenger transportation to its traditional shipping services. This poster was put out in 1950 by the printing press Bruno Bellesia.
