Ah! Here's, finally, a great flag! It's good in itself: a red and white
vertical bicolour with a blue disc centered, surrounded by 6 blue 5-pointed
stars, arranged in two partial arc on both sides of the disc. But it's
also good because the caption is completely clear: it reads "Kosmos Linie".
Jorge Candeias, 7 Dec 2004
The stars are indeed blue. See the 1907
painting (with very small flag), but especially the pdf
file (house flag chart, 1902). Pity, they show six-pointed stars. Five-pointed
stars again under No. 182 of the on-line 1912
Lloyds Flags & Funnels, i.e. 'Deutsche Dampfschiffahrtsgesellschaft
"Kosmos", Hamburg'.
So this has to be resolved, but I'd rather believe in Jorge's version.
A question remains... and perhaps our German list members can help
here... is there a 'cosmological' intent behind the flag design?

It is a vertical divided red and white flag. In the centre is a blue
roundel surrounded by six blue 4-point-stars .
