If the city of New York had not renamed, the affiche would say "Rotterdam, Amsterdam - New Amsterdam"

Cool old poster. Must be pretty early: NASM started up around 1872. Added to commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Holland_America_Line Thanks for posting these!

Possibly from this family -- de Crombrugghe de Picquendaele gw2.geneanet.org/idesrotsart1?lang=en&m=N&v=de%20... But I don't see a match for the J. initial. There do seem to be three branches to the Belgian aristocratic family: de Crombrugghe de Picquendaele, de Crombrugghe de Schipsdaele, de Crombrugghe de Looringhe

This may be little Georges, Georges de Crombrugghe de Looringhe, born 1909 gw1.geneanet.org/gounou?lang=en&pz=auguste&nz=dum... If so, his mother is the former Madeleine de Kerchove de Denterghem d'Exaerde 1882-1966 NYT of September 19, 1915 select.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F50816FA385B1773... reports that she and her husband had become separated in Belgium some months before. Having discovered where the other was, they missed each other crossing the Atlantic!!
