This album page documents the Philadelphia Navy Yard (League Island) in the early 1900s, showing its machine shops and the receiving ship U.S.R.S. Lancaster, a sailing frigate retained in service to house and process incoming sailors. Small inset snapshots like the 'Old Chums' portrait in the corner reflect the personal bonds sailors formed during their service, a recurring theme throughout this crewman's souvenir album of his time aboard USS Columbia.
