Vintage photographs of battleships, battlecruisers and cruisers.

To go directly to photos of a specific ship, simply enter her name in the search window (little white space) at the upper left. Ditto for a type of warship, country, year, etc..., e.g. battlecruiser. You can click on an individual photograph to view it alone against a dark background. When you want to go back to the page, just click outside the picture. Please note that I resize, denoise/despeckle/descratch and generally crop the photos to show mostly the ship itself in the space available.

Experimental camouflage tested on battleship USS New Jersey, circa 1918.

According to navsource.org, this camouflage was called a MacKay "disruptive low-visibility pattern" and the other battleship astern of the New Jersey was probably the USS Rhode Island.
