A painting in the Søfart museum in Troense shows the pennant of
Dampskibselsskabet af 1912 a/s, Copenhagen: Blue with white 7 pointed star;
heptagram 2 (meaning, "to the second point", I expect.)
Peter Hans van den Muijzenberg, 27 August 2001
Dampskibsselskabet af
1912 A/S. The flag is that of A.P. Møller, this
being one of the two companies which formed the nucleus of this group.

image by Ivan Sache, based on Joseph Nüsse website
White flag with a red seven-pointed star in the middle, an elongated and
symmetrical Danish national flag placed along the upper edge of the flag, and a
red stripe charged with progress in white placed along the lower edge of the
flag. I guess this is an other Maersk-related company.
Ivan Sache, 16 November 2002
No, not Maersk. Besides, the company seems to have gone belly-up in the
summer of 2000. There was talk of a management buy-out, but that seems to have
failed.
Ole Andersen, 16 November 2002
Dampskibs-Aktieselskabet Progress (Copenhagen). Assuming that this is the
company now known as D/S Progress, it is still shown by Lloyds operating through
Progress Ugland Ltd. which is a joint venture with Ugland International Holdings
plc, formed around 1999. Whether the flag is used by this concern is unknown.
D/S Progress is shown as being formed 1904 and again by presumption it is the
company [as D/S A/S Progress] which was operated by Marius Nielsen & Söhn and
used their flag as shown elsewhere on this page. This association seems to have
altered around 1960 when O. Amsinck are shown as the operators, from the same
address. By the early 1970s Amsinck are no longer mentioned and D/S A/S Progress
seem to have ceased as shipowners around the latter 1980s, next being traced as
D/S Progress in the late 1990s. Nothing is known of when the flag shown here was
adopted.

Red flag with a white seven-pointed star. This is the Maersk Line star, is not it?
We show a similar flag for P. Brown Jun. & Co.
Ivan Sache, 16 November 2002
No, Norden was established in 1871, the first Maersk company (D/S Svendborg)
is from 1904.
Ole Andersen, 16 November 2002
The website at http://www.ds-norden.com/
reports Dampskibsselskabet NORDEN AS (Copenhagen, Denmark) -
blue-white-red-white-blue horizontal (~3:1:6:1:3) with 8 points star on the red
stripe.
Dov Gutterman, 17 October 2003
Dampskibselskabet "Norden". Peter Brown, followed by P. Brown Jnr & Co., were
operators at least, possibly even owners, although they are not mentioned by
Lloyds from the 1960s. Sources usually showed both names but
Stewart (1953) has only shown that of Brown.
Neale Rosanoski, 27 April 2004
Dampskibselskabet "Norden" (Copenhagen). I checked the company website to
find the flag described by Dov but the nearest seems to be their addition to the
letter "E" in their name heading of the red flag with star which could be
construed to represent a multi banded flag except the top and bottom would be
black not blue. The site also shows the plain flag with star flying over their
building on the history page so I think that the name logo is in fact misleading
and in fact it looks more like the funnel except that it does not show the star
i.e. black with a red band edged by two narrow white bands. My guess is that
they have combined the two in order to make their logo.

Danena AS (Aarhus, Denmark) - Swallowtail, red, two thin white stripes and
bold white N.
http://www.danena.dk/
Dov Gutterman, 17 October 2003
The company is based in Aarhus. It is a shipping and ship-owning company
specialized in dredging in the Baltic, North Sea and Danish waters. The flag is
swallow- tailed, red with two thin white stripes near the top and the bottom of
the flag and a white N in the middle.
Ivan Sache, 27 November 2003
Danena A/S. The "N" probably refers to Ejnar Nygaard who up to the end of the
1980s was shown by Lloyds as the manager at the same address as they still use.

The corporate newsletter of Dannebrog Lines:
http://w3t.org/?c=dannebrog. shows the
logos of both Dannebrog and Weco lines (both
parts of Nordana Line). The Dannebrog logo is
a swallowtailed Dannebrog on a blue rectangle. I guess a Danish company called
Dannebrog had to use some adaptation of the national flag as their logo.
