This album page documents a port call at St. Thomas in the Danish (later U.S.) Virgin Islands, a frequent liberty stop for U.S. Navy vessels cruising the Caribbean at the turn of the twentieth century. Handwritten captions identify local street scenes, a sailor's portrait ('F. Delaney U.S.N.'), and a group photograph wryly titled 'The Handsomest man in St. Thomas,' reflecting the informal, personal character of sailors' photo albums from this era of American naval expansion in the Caribbean.
