Nymph
(American Motor Boat, circa 1912)

Photographed prior to World War I. The name Nymph is visible on her sideboard, life ring and stern.
The original photograph was labeled as representing the motor boat Content, built at Port Clinton, Ohio, in 1912, which was of very similar, if not identical, appearance. Content became USS Content (SP-538) in 1917. There is no record that Nymph had any U.S. Navy service.

The original print is in National Archives' Record Group 19-LCM.
