 World Voyage Tiles



This page shows all World Voyage tiles currently known to the author. I you should have any tiles not shown here, I would appreciate an image scanned at 300dpi or the opportunity to purchase/trade the tile. I have many doubles of all kinds an would love to trade multiple tiles for any one tile I do not have in my collection..


1993
This rarely seen tile was mostl likely produced in the USA as a contender for the series shown below. The text on the inside of the box lid seems to indicate that this tile was the first of an intended series, but the Line opted for Goedewaagen and selected the series following this entry. The tile and the box and inside of the box lid are shown below.According to one source at the Holland America Line this tile may have been for sale in the on-board shop. The image is courtesy Ton Rijppaert. I have this tile in my collecition.

2008 - 2010

There are no tiles known of World Voyages from 2008 until 2010


2011 - present

After a hiatus of 3 years, the 2011 ms Amsterdam World voyage was celebrated with one tile as shown below. Image courtesy of Monique Lafleur. The  oval tiles seem to be the way that the Holland America Line will go forward on many of the new tiles, both for the World Voyages as well as for other special voyages. Each World Voyage is commemorated with only one tile. I need 2011-world-ams-01 for my collection.
