EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the U.S.S. Ericsson in dry dock at the Brooklyn Navy Yard between 1897 and 1901. The U.S.S. Ericsson, a cruiser and the first ship of its class in the United States Navy, was named after John Ericsson, the inventor of the screw propeller. This image offers a glimpse into the rich naval history of the United States during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The black and white glass negative, measuring 8 x 10 inches, was taken during a period of significant expansion and modernization of the U.S. Navy. The U.S.S. Ericsson, a torpedo boat destroyer, was one of the many ships undergoing repairs and upgrades at the Brooklyn Navy Yard during this time. The graving dock, visible in the background, was used for the repair and construction of large naval vessels. The photograph, taken by an unknown photographer, is a testament to the technological advancements and innovations of the era. The U.S.S. Ericsson, with its sleek design and advanced weaponry, embodied the country's commitment to naval power and military might. The image also provides a fascinating look at the daily operations of the navy yard and the role it played in the transportation and logistics of the United States Navy. This photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of maritime history, military history, or American history. It offers a unique perspective into the past and serves as a reminder of the important role the U.S. Navy has played in the nation's history. The image is part of the extensive collection of the Library of Congress, a treasure trove of historical photographs and documents.
