Cruisers and other Navy ships at the Navy Yard waterfront, circa 1907-1908.
The large cruiser in the left center is probably USS Milwaukee (Cruiser # 21), with what is probably USS California (Armored Cruiser # 6) immediately ahead of her. The two small cruisers tied up side by side in the right center are USS Raleigh (Cruiser # 8) and USS Cincinnati (Cruiser # 7), which were then out of commission.
The original image was printed on a postal card, published by Frank J. Stumm, Benicia, California.
