Show morePhoto of westward view of seaplane ramp at NAS Pensacola with a Curtiss R-6 taxiing away taken sometime between March and November 1918. Various means of transportation are visible in the photo from steam ships on the water, to the seaplane, to a horse drawn carriage in the middle right next to plan 776, and a chassis of a carriage being worked on in the lower right. The photos are duplicates yet contained different information on the back so are provided for contextualization. The first copy has a date range and notable planes that are seen in the photo. The second contains a possibly older description written on the back as well as an archival summary detailing how the date range was conceived.
