The trading name of the company, including its flag of a White Star on a red background, was sold to the Oceanic Steam Navigation Company for £1,000. The Oceanic Steam Navigation Company was founded by Thomas Henry Ismay and was officially registered as a company on 6 September 1869. Immediately, an order was placed with the Belfast shipyard of Harland and Wolff for four liners, followed by another two to the same design. The first of these, the Oceanic, was launched on 27 August 1870. The vessel was some 420 feet in length, 41 feet wide and had a gross registered tonnage of 3,707. In 1902 the American conglomerate IMM (International Mercantile Marine) consolidated its position as a major shipping line owner by acquiring the White Star Line for £10 million. In 1907 plans were drawn up for the three largest liners in the world, the Olympic class. The first, the Olympic, was launched in 1910; the second, the Titanic was launched in 1911; and the third, the Britannic, was launched in 1914."
