It seems that a change has been made as the company site now shows a flag logo without letters, just the cross pattee. Incidentally Lloyds 1912 shows the letters as "C." and "J." and being blue (and domiciles as St. Petersburg in line with the company information that they originated in Russia) but whether this is correct with a subsequent change to the black letters shown here, as well as by Talbot-Booth 1942 and 1944, and Brown 1958, is a moot point.

The company Dampskibsselskabet Baltic A/S has the same houseflag.
