13 1/4″ x 10″ photo of U. Bass B-2 shown in Pearl Harbor, T. With working parties of her sailors fore and aft of the conning tower c 1930’s. This colorized (the method used prior to color photo film) b & w photo is in its original frame and glass (showing a lot of air bubbles in the glass). Photographer Tai Sing Loo’s signature is partially visible in the lower left corner of the photo which was evidently cropped when this photo was framed 90 +/- years ago. Tai Sing Loo was the premier photographer for the U. The shadow running across the top is simply a condition of the overhead lighting; it is not part of the photo.
