Title: Installing a 12"/45 gun in a battleship gun turret
Description: Photo #: NH 105785 Installing a 12/45 gun in a battleship gun turret This is probably Turret # 3 of either Delaware (Battleship # 28) or North Dakota (Battleship # 29). The view may have been taken while the ship was under construction, circa 1909-1910. The original image is printed on post card (AZO) stock. A handwritten inscription pencilled on its reverse (USS Franklin) has no obvious bearing on the subject of the photo. Donation of Charles R. Haberlein Jr., 2008. U.S. Naval History and Heritage Command Photograph.
Catalog #: NH 105785
