Can anyone tell me what colors the ships of the Thingvalla Line were painted -- in particular the SS Thingvalla. If nothing else I would like to know the colors of the stack. Thank you for any help you can offer.

Stack: buff with a white band with a blue star in the center, like on the flag which was also white with the blue star. You can see the shape of the star here. The ship on this picture is the S/S Island
