  • USS Henderson (Transport # 1) Souvenir Folder:
    Photo #s NH 105753, NH 105754, NH 105755, NH 105756, NH 105757, NH 105758, NH 105759, NH 105760, NH 105761 and NH 105762.

  • USS Walter A. Luckenbach (ID # 3171) Souvenir Folder:
    Photo #s NH 104785, NH 104786, NH 104787, NH 104788, NH 104789, NH 104790, NH 104791, and NH 104792.
    Two other images in this folder are represented elsewhere in the Online Library. One of these is Photo # NH 11, which is actually a photograph of USS F.J. Luckenbach (ID # 2160), a ship somewhat different in appearance from USS Walter A. Luckenbach. The other is Photo # NH 103967. The latter view is identified as a gun on USS Von Steuben (ID # 3017), which appears to be a more credible location for the gun than does USS Walter A. Luckenbach.

  • USS Powhatan (ID # 3013) Souvenir Folder:
    We have another folder for this ship, identical to that seen on the page "Souvenir Folders" -- Part II except that its cover is ORANGE-TAN (instead of GREEN-GRAY) and its ship photograph is different. The ship photo in the second photo has Photo # NH 103952. It does not show Powhatan, but rather a freighter of very different appearance.
