This image is a graphic print, designed in a style reminiscent of early 20th century European advertising or informational posters. The primary visual element is a stylized black anchor set against a cream background. The anchor's shank extends upward into a circle with smaller circles inside, potentially representing a nautical compass or wheel. Wrapped around this anchor is a dark blue ribbon or banner, on which the names of several countries are printed in white capital letters. These countries, listed from the top to the bottom of the ribbon, include Denmark (DÄNEMARK), Sweden (SCHWEDEN), Norway (NORWEGEN), Finland (FINNLAND), Russia (RUSSLAND), Estonia (ESTLANDE), Latvia (LETTLAND), Lithuania (LITAUEN), and Danzig. Below the anchor, a red silhouette of a cityscape, likely representing the city of Lübeck, is shown with the word "LÜBEK" in bold white letters, alongside the text "MITTELPUNKT DEUTSCH-NORDISCHEN VERKEHRS" indicating Lübeck’s central role in German-Nordic traffic or trade. Additional text beneath the cityscape includes "BILLIGE UND SCHNELLE GÜTERTRANSPORTE STETS ÜBER LÜBEK" suggesting a marketing message about cheap and fast goods transportation always through Lübeck. In the bottom left corner, there is text reading "Heft 2" (issue 2) followed by "Februar 1928" (February 1928) and "Lübeck," indicating the time and place of publication. Overall, the text suggests that this image might be the cover of a publication from Lübeck’s chamber of commerce (as suggested by "MITTEILUNGEN D. HANDELSKAMMER ZU LÜBEK"), and it seems to communicate information about the city's economic and trade importance in the Baltic Sea region during that era. The design is clean, geometric, and has a strong utilitarian message, fitting with the styles of the art movements from that period.
