This album page pairs two photographs from the early 1900s U.S. Navy: above, the armored cruiser USS Colorado (ACR-7) underway during her October 1904 trial trip, her four funnels streaming coal smoke in the classic silhouette of the pre-dreadnought fleet; below, a portrait of Naval Apprentice Frank Dallin in the period sailor's flannel jumper and flat cap, posed beside a deck gun amid coiled ship's rope. Together they illustrate both the technology and the everyday personnel of the 'Old Navy' era, when steam and sail traditions still coexisted aboard the fleet's newest cruisers. Project: 218597
