Lloyd Sabaudo SS Conte Grande First Class Interiors Brochure – 1928

A vintage Lloyd Sabaudo promotional brochure presenting the first-class accommodation and interiors of SS Conte Grande, dated 1928. The blue-and-gold cover combines a crowned eagle emblem with an illustration of the ocean liner, while the back cover carries the LS anchor emblem.

Four fold-out interior leaves open into wider photographic displays, with black-and-white views framed by pale blue decorative borders. Subjects include the writing room, veranda, grand hall, suite drawing room, music room, dining saloon, cabins and Japanese-style swimming pool. Italian and English captions identify the spaces, and a passenger-office and agency list appears towards the end.

A compact piece of ocean liner ephemera for collectors interested in Italian shipping, period interiors and the visual language of luxury travel.
