Poster for the Compañía Ybarra & Co. advertising the regular service of the steamships Cabo San Vicente and Cabo San Roque. Ever since the late 19th century, the company had been covering routes along the Spanish Mediterranean coast, up to France (Marseille) in one direction, while in the other, the Atlantic area, and even as far as the coasts of Cantabria in Spain, England and the Baltic. Later on, during the First World War, the Ybarra company put on lines across the Atlantic, thus opening up a regular route between Spain and the United States, and adding passenger transport (until then it had only transported goods).
