Does anyone know where I can buy a painting, high quality picture or finished of the Maasdam IV. I've been searching on line but have not really found anything suitable

Australia based maritime artist Stephen Card has painted most past and present HAL ships along w/other cruise ships and liners. Prints of his work are available for purchase online at various galleries. Captain Card's work can be seen on many HAL and other cruise ships.

Stephen Card should definitely have a painting of the Maasdam. This Website seems to have the best possibilities maybe.

Here is one of her sister the Ryndam

And he has a beautiful one of the Maasdam, Statendam and Nieuw Amsterdam on that site

And CM Models has produced a model of the Ryndam, the Maasdam's sister as well CMKR-142.

Another shot of the model, which is to 1:1250 scale, so only maybe 5 inches long

Model is available at Wiedling, whose website is here

Is Maasdam IV the current cruise ship or the tourist liner of the early 1950s?

Maasdam IV sailed for HAL from 1952 - 1968 and became the Polish Stefan Batory. She is scrapped in 1999 in Aliaga, Turkey.

I am not sure if this has already been mentioned but this site has thousands of finished models of every type of ship from many manufacturers...

Even some of the ocean liners are in wartime paint or camouflage.

This site also sells CM models with lots of cool pictures to show you what the models look like...
