Photo #: NH 105069
USS Von Steuben (ID # 3017)
At anchor, circa late 1917 or early 1918.
The original photograph is printed on post card ("AZO")
stock.
The original card bears a hand-written inscription "3-14-19",
which may be the date that the original owner was on Von Steuben.
It is not the date of the photograph, as the configuration of
the ship's masts, and the presence of guns, strongly indicates
that it was taken about a year earlier.
Donation of Charles R. Haberlein Jr., 2007.
U.S. Naval Historical Center Photograph.
