Hi Andi,
I`m not a tanker man, but a rough date could help....Is this Hamburg, Vulkanhafen with the u-boat bunker to the right?

AndiDandi · Feb 26, 2017

Must be around mid 50ties, made by my uncle. Don´t know if Vulkanhafen or other. Hamburg is right.
That´s all what I know.

Certainly looks like it. I had Oetker in the back of my mind.
