This scrapbook page from the USS Columbia album pairs a sailor's snapshot of the Confederate monument in a Pensacola, Florida park with a quiet shoreline view captioned 'The Beach at East LeMoyne, Maine.' A small brass ship's propeller charm, glued to the page, commemorates service aboard the cruiser. Together the images illustrate the personal, travel-diary character of turn-of-the-century sailors' albums, documenting liberty visits to Gulf Coast ports and hometown leave in New England during the era of the 'Old Navy,' roughly 1898-1910s.
