Naval Review in San Francisco Bay, 17 May 1908
Panoramic photograph by the Pillsbury Picture Company, showing
the review of the "Great White Fleet" by Secretary
of the Navy Victor A. Metcalf, embarked in USS Yorktown
(Gunboat # 1), which is steaming toward the left in the right
center of the image.
Three destroyers are in the line nearest to the camera (from
left to center), with either USS Hopkins or USS Hull
in the center and USS Lawrence next astern.
Eleven battleships are present, in the rows on the opposite side
of Yorktown's course, and seven Pacific Fleet armored
cruisers are in the most distant row.
