It includes the Domain of Neptunus Rex certificate of W. Tetidrick when he crossed the prime Meridian in 1928. And 6 pages of signatures from his crew mates which have funny notes for each. Each photo is original and authentic to this album, providing a unique insight into the history and events of the time. This sailor kept photos of his friends, family, girls and adventures ashore with names and places labeled. Sailors team photos, sailors golfing in uniform. Photos of the mechanics, the crew quarters and artillery. Photos of home and girls and drinking beer in ports around the world. This collectible album is a valuable piece of militaria, offering a glimpse into the naval activities and experiences of the United States Navy during that time. This leather album is full and over flowing with real photos and is a brilliant addition to your collection. It is a prized possession for any enthusiast or collector of military memorabilia. Most of the photos are in great condition. The edges of the book are worn, as pictured. Zoom in on the cover to see all the countries visited written on it. During the attack on Pearl Harbor the USS Oklahoma was sunk, 429 Sailors were lost. The USS Pennsylvania was in dry dock in Pearl Harbor at the time. She suffered 15 crewmen killed, 14 missing in action (presumed dead), and 38 wounded, with casualties resulting from bomb fragments and debris, including a torpedo tube section blown onto her deck from the destroyer Downes. The Pennsylvania was the flagship of the U. Being in drydock spared it from the direct catastrophic hits of other battleships, but it still sustained significant damage and casualties from the attack.
A fine description of original photos of military and civilian. Book is tattered but still presents nicely. Listing photos depict every photo/page in book.
