Photo #: NH 43747
USS Passaic (1862-1899)
Photographed late in her career, after she had been fitted with
a light "flying" deck.
View looks forward from off the port quarter. Note the ship's
propeller well aft, with its cover removed and resting on deck.
The exposed tiller and steering cables are also visible, between
the propeller well and its cover.
Possibly taken during Passaic's service at the U.S. Naval
Academy, Annapolis, Maryland, circa 1883-1892.
