Got this postcard from Kein today, posted 11/08/1937 so has taken a while to get here.

Interesting view of VENUS in her original form with flat-fronted bridge and a lower foredeck. After being a guest of the German Government and being sunk by us at Hamburg, she appeared in a more modern form with raked stem, new funnels and changes to accommodation. See download/file.php?id=54292&mode=view
Any guesses for the white-hulled vessel ahead of her?

On a Facebook page for local (north-east) shiiping interest she was identified as Bergen Lines STELLA POLARIS. However, I cannot say whether or not this is correct.
