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.

Ironclad battleship H.M.S. Edinburgh

H.M.S. Edinburgh and her sister Colossus, were the first British battleships to mount breech-loading main guns and to replace iron armour with compound armour, principally in the form of an armoured citadel amidships.
