Title: S.S. Saint Louis
Description: (American Passenger Liner, 1895) Fine screen halftone reproduction of a photograph, published in 1898 at the time of the Spanish-American War. It was probably taken at the time of her completion, circa 1895, while Saint Louis was off the shipyard of her builder, the William Cramp & Sons Ship and Engine Building Company, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This ship was USS Saint Louis in 1898 and USS Louisville (ID # 1644) in 1918-1919. The ship fitting out in the left background is either USS Indiana (Battleship # 1) or USS Massachusetts (Battleship # 2), both of which were built by Cramp.
