EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, dating back to the late 19th century, depicts Pay Clerk Ramsey aboard the U.S.S. Brooklyn during its service years between 1896 and 1899. The U.S.S. Brooklyn was a cruiser of the Brooklyn class, renowned for its significant role in the United States Navy. Pay Clerk Ramsey is shown in formal attire, dressed in a crisp shirt, vest, and tie, with a neatly pressed jacket and trousers. The intricate details of his clothing are evident, revealing the high standards of appearance expected of naval personnel during this era. The photograph was taken using a dry plate glass negative, a common photographic process during the late 1800s. The U.S.S. Brooklyn, a powerful battleship, served as a vital component of the United States Navy during a time of increasing naval activity and tensions. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the daily life of a naval crewman, providing a window into the past and the rich history of the United States Navy. The photograph is part of the extensive collection housed at the Library of Congress, a testament to the importance of preserving historical records and images for future generations. The image is a poignant reminder of the men and women who served in the United States Navy during the late 19th century, and the critical role they played in shaping the country's maritime history.
