1923 PHOTO USS OKLAHOMA RIFLE PARTY FOOT LONG 2-PIECE 19 x 6 1/2 CAMP LEWIS. Amazing photo – USS OKLAHOMA BB-37 Crew st a rifle range – captioned “USS OKLAHOMA RIFLE PARTY CAMP LEWIS APRIL 1923″. Photo is in two parts with each being 9 1/2 x 6 1/2 for a total size of 19″ x 6 1/2″. USS Oklahoma (BB-37) was a Nevada-class battleship built by the New York Shipbuilding Corporation for the United States Navy, notable for being the first American class of oil-burning dreadnoughts. After the war, she served in both the United States Battle Fleet and Scouting Fleet. Oklahoma was modernized between 1927 and 1929. In 1936, she rescued American citizens and refugees from the Spanish Civil War. On returning to the West Coast in August of the same year, Oklahoma spent the rest of her service in the Pacific. Some sailors inside escaped when rescuers drilled holes and opened hatches to rescue them. Unlike most of the other battleships that were recovered following Pearl Harbor, Oklahoma was too damaged to return to duty.

The Salvo Published by the Eleventh Training Battery Field Artillery Central Officers Training School Camp Zachary Taylor, Kentucky 1918 Hardcover book is in acceptable condition (edgewear/cornerwear, some pencil marks inside, hinges cracked, one page loose). I assume no pages are missing but since the pages are not numbered, I can’t be sure (see both sides of loose page).
Pershing panoramic photo 28th Div Mt. Gretna PA Camp Anderson. Rare, original panoramic of the 28th Division troop review by General Pershing, that occurred on July 16, 1923 at Camp Anderson, Mt. This was a huge event in Lebanon County. This very large panoramic measures approx 50-1/4 x 8. According to the details in the lower left, this involved the 55th Brigade Infantry, the 52nd Brigade Cavalry, and special troops. All part of the Pennsylvania National Guard. Also noted in the lower right is the photographer’s mark of “Harpel” of Lebanon PA. As you can see in the photo, there is a lot of activity. Only guessing, but General Pershing may be the one on the horse with his head down, closest to the left border. Great background scenery including the 18 trucks, and even crowds with parked vehicles viewing this spectacle. As for the condition, the photo has been neatly folded in half, with several tape repairs on the reverse. This is some discoloration on the front, more tape repairs, some little border tears, and a corner missing. This all sounds worrisome, but the overall subject is not really affected. We believe this would be very appealing in a large frame. I have mixed photographs and scans of the panoramic just to see what turned out better for this description. Please review them below. I have also added a few clippings for perspective on the event. Get Supersized Images & Free Image Hosting. Create your brand with Auctiva’s.
