Wyt’s Digest of Dutch Shipping and Shipbuilding 1959

VINTAGESTAN BOOKS
Title: Wyt’s Digest of Dutch Shipping and Shipbuilding 1959 
Summary: Wyt’s Digest was an (annual / regular-interval) publication by Dagblad Scheepvaart — a maritime-industry newspaper based in Rotterdam. 
The Digest provided a yearly overview of Dutch shipping and shipbuilding: including fleet lists of the Netherlands’ merchant marine, overviews of shipping companies (“reederijen”), lists of new ships launched in the period (with photos, technical data, deadweight tonnage, shipyard, classification, etc.). 
As such it functioned more like an industry yearbook / almanac than a narrative history or analysis — giving data, facts, ship-by-ship information, company snapshots, and period-advertisements.
