"A view of an American warship in Havana harbor, likely taken prior to the outbreak of hostilities between the United States and Spain in early 1898. The photographers, Leach and Patterson of Calle San Rafael, published several views of Cuba at this time, mostly of bucolic scenes around Havana and its environs. The American cruiser is similar in design to the U.S.S. Maine with slight differences - two smokestacks instead of three. An excellent example with minor wear to mount and fine image."
