400′, b&w, possibly an Agfacolor / Kodacolor film as it appears to have lenticles (but no Kodacolor markings and comes on an Agfa reel, so most likely Agfacolor?) Film shows a pleasure cruise aboard the SS Monte Rosa, aka HMT Empire Windrush, to visit the Fjords in Norway / Scandinavia. Most of footage shows passengers enjoying themselves and scenery, and shots of the vessel. Probably dates to 1933-34 era, based on accounts of the ship operating in Norway in those years.

Agfacolor lenticular film is a black and white film with a pattern of vertical elevations and tiny lenses that refract light into red, green, and blue. Agfa used this film in the 1930s for cinematography.

HMT Empire Windrush was a passenger motor ship that was launched in Germany in 1930 as the MV Monte Rosa. She was built as an ocean liner for the German shipping company Hamburg Süd. They used the ship to carry German emigrants to South America, and as a cruise ship. During World War II, she was taken over by the German navy and used as a troopship. During the war, she survived two Allied attempts to sink her.

Note: When World War II began, Monte Rosa was in Hamburg. She was one of two ships used in 1942 to deport Norwegian Jews. She made two trips from Oslo to Denmark on 19 and 26 November, carrying a total of 46 people, including the Polish-Norwegian businessman and humanitarian Moritz Rabinowitz. All but two were murdered at Auschwitz concentration camp In September 1943 she was to be used for the deportation of Danish Jews. The German chief of sea transport at Aarhus in Denmark, together with Monte Rosa’s captain, Heinrich Bertram (captain) [de], conspired to prevent this by falsely reporting serious engine trouble to the German High Command. This action may have helped the rescue of the Danish Jews.
