1934-36, Pre-WW2 Era USS Ranger CV-4 Shakedown Cruise Photo Log Album. The 14″ x 9″ photo album is clean with a soft, supple leathery maybe cowhide? Cover with a double-snap closure. I assume he was the photographer since the album was his. His provenance includes his Sellback Certificate, Crossing the Line Summons, and Shellback Cards. That’s the overall “package, ” so to speak. What’s within is pretty remarkable–and historically significant on several levels. First, it has appeal to pre-War USN enthusiasts for obvious reasons. There are photos pertaining to the filming aboard the Ranger. Third, it has a local significance to San Diego, in which several other locations were used from the filming. In particular, there are a number of photos of Balboa Park during the California Pacific International Exposition. That’s an overview; what follows is a rough index of the album’s contents. 1: News article covering the Wings over Honolulu filming. 2-4: Eleven 5″ x 4″ photos showing aspects of the filming on the flight deck of Ranger. 5-9: Twenty 4.5″ x 2.75″ photos of Balboa Park. 10-17: Twenty-nine period Postcards of the Golden Gate Bridge, which opened in 1937. 18: One postcard of the GGB and two original 2.75″ x 4.5″ photos pertaining to the bridge’s construction. 19-26: Fifteen 7″ x 5″ aerial photos of the Pacific Northwest including Ranger and Floatplane. 27-29: Twelve 5″ x 4″ ground-level photos of the Pacific Northwest. 30-33: Eight period Peruvian postcards & commemorative Ranger envelopes. 34-45: Forty-six period postcards from California and the Pacific Northwest. 46-47: Thirteen 4.5″ x 2.75″ personal photos. 48-52: Eighteen 5″ x 4″ Crossing the Line photos. 53: Thirteen-page Crossing the Line Memorandum-style Program. 54-69: Fifty-five more 5″ x 4″ Crossing the Line photos and two Shellback cards. 71: Crossing the Line Summons. 73: 1936 Crossing the Line Booklet (20 pages). 74-75: One 8″ x 10″ and one 9.75 x 6 USS Ranger photos. 76: One 7″ x 5″ USS Ranger photo. Unfortunately, the listing is limited to 24 photos, so there’s so much more you’ll see when you receive it. It’s pretty hard to part with this gem, but as I’ve grown older, I’m realizing I can’t take it all with me, so it’s time for another collector to enjoy it–hopefully as much as I have. Truly a genuine historical and, in some ways, a cultural artifact! Please examine the listing pictures for content/condition specifics, and feel free to send along any questions you may have.

The Cruise of the USS Eagle #2 (PE-2) from New York to Archangel Russia. Up For Sale Today is. The Cruise of the USS Eagle #2 from New York to Archangel Russia. The Eagle-class patrol craft were anti-submarine vessels of the United States Navy that were built during World War I using mass production techniques. The submarine chasers’ range of about 900 miles (1,400 km) at a cruising speed of 10 knots (19 km/h; 12 mph) restricted their operations to off-shore anti-submarine work and denied them an open-ocean escort capability; their high consumption of gasoline and limited fuel storage were handicaps the Eagle class sought to remedy. They were originally commissioned USS Eagle Boat No. 1 or 2,3.. But this was changed to PE-1 or 2,4.. They never officially saw combat in World War I, but some were used during the Allied intervention in the Russian Civil War. PE-19, 27, 32, 38, 48 and 55-57 survived to be used in World War II. Attention turned to building steel patrol vessels. Accordingly, a design was developed by the Bureau of Construction and Repair which was sufficiently simplified to permit speedy construction by less experienced shipyards.
