The Harbor and Colonial Arms, Gloucester, Massachusetts

Photo 4a06789 shows a two stack ship more or less center called the USS Minneapolis. The ship to her right, closer to the shore, is USS Dixie. 1905 is pretty good for the date, because in June or July of that year Minneapolis and Dixie left for Spain, carrying scientists to observe the eclipse of the sun, off the Spanish coast.
